It existed to render two fields that live in master.conf's HOST IDENTITIES group, which the shared renderer now includes — one settings surface for the page rather than two both editing the same file.
Windows with runs but no bytes say 'no data moved' rather than 0.00 GB, and rows before the byte-parser fix are excluded rather than summed into a false total.
The wizard had a Skip beside Create API Key and a second link that renamed itself Go to Scheduler/Partnership, so leaving early and finishing looked like the same action.
It was a browser flag set on click, and refreshing is the first thing anyone does when a page looks stuck — which put them back on the phase-1 panel the state exists to replace.
The mirror's own job ends in seconds while Phase 2 runs for minutes on the owner, so the screen sat unchanged on the phase-1 panel — which reads as a hang, and the reasonable response to a hang is to start clicking.
Step 1b ran the owner's SCRIPTS_ROOT path over SSH on the mirror, so it failed on every appdata install; the wizard poll expired at 5 minutes against a Phase 2 that takes over 4.
With nothing blocking but optional keys unfilled the banner rendered an empty string, so a finished onboard showed a blank panel beside a Join button still greyed at Running.
The phase-2 branch of the mirror panel returned the same Join partnership / Onboard block as the not-started state, so a finished onboard read as one that never ran.
The guard tested Tier 1 only, so onboard Step 1d's posture — Tier 1 open, every Tier 2 closed — made a healthy partner climb toward auto-offboard every 30 minutes. The counter holds intervals, not days, and was rendered raw.
Onboard now ends at Phase 2: connected, running, and saying so. Phase 3 sets the seeding gate posture and dispatches the seed. With MEDIA_SEED_ENABLED false there is no Phase 3 and the model is two phases.
A first seed is ~28 TB behind a 12.5 MB/s bwlimit, and it ran inline as Step 9d, so the
phase-2 flag every status reader depends on was written only after it finished.
A low uptime figure, a refused login and a certificate that stopped
renewing all looked the same from the row: a number, with the reason
split across NPM, an Authelia config and the directory.
The why-check goes and looks — TCP to the forward target, HTTP through
the proxy, a second handshake with verification off to tell a broken
certificate from a broken service. Forward hosts are docker names that
only resolve on NPM's network, so an unresolvable one is redirected to
the container address and the substitution is reported; a check that
could not be made must never read as a check that failed.
The access simulator walks the rules the way Authelia does and shows the
ones it stepped over, reading whichever instance the chosen host points
at rather than the one conf names — there are two here.
Cert triage counts runs rather than log lines and orders by rotation
suffix rather than mtime, both of which change the answer.
NPM's access log only describes hosts somebody visited; the host most likely to be quietly broken
is the one nobody does. Probes carry a User-Agent npm_access_stats.sh drops — unmarked, this
monitor would be fifty thousand requests a day in the very logs it reports on.
NPM writes an access log per host and counts nothing, so 475 MB of logs held the only answer to
"is anything using this". Aggregated on a schedule and read from a few kB of JSON; the row also
now says whether an auth_request block is in front of the site, which nothing showed before.
Saving a host sent advanced_config as an empty string and reset http2, both HSTS flags, meta,
locations and enabled — so changing a port removed the auth_request block that puts Authelia in
front of the site. Twenty-five of the thirty-five hosts here carry one.
NPM knows what a certificate is today and nothing about what it was, so ten of them could fail
renewal for months — 1001 certbot runs, zero successes — without anything on any page saying so.
Counts start at zero and are only ever observed; only first_seen is seeded, from NPM's own date.
Authentik is the likely destination and the page had Authelia and lldap wired in at every
level, so the seam goes in now: the panels and every endpoint action route off one conf value,
and a stack that cannot be driven yet says so rather than drawing controls with nothing behind.
Opening the editor to fix a name and then having to close it to reach a password or a group
was three dialogs for one sitting; the row buttons stay for one-click access from the list.
lldap lets you edit five things about a user and one about a group; the page reached two of
them, so correcting a surname or a group's name still meant opening the container's own WebUI.
The block is rebuilt from the parsed model on every save and the parser discarded comments,
so one press of Save deleted the five ## lines that are the only thing in the file saying
what each rule is for — which inline editing was about to make far easier to press.
Most rules carry thirteen or fourteen domains, which in one table cell was a four-hundred
character run that answered no question at a glance; the group is what you are looking for
and it is now the heading.
