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.
All 16 include/ files now carry PURPOSE / DESIGN PRINCIPLES / OPERATIONAL
SAFEGUARDS / EXPORTS / CONFIGURATION, keeping the first three section names
identical to the bash headers so retrieval can route across both languages.
monitor.php read six watchdog state files from /tmp while the watchdogs write
to STATE_DIR, so every strike set came back empty and the summary reported
healthy unconditionally. docs.php gained path containment before it is wired
to a page.
All state/data file paths in scripts and PHP now resolve via STATE_DIR / DATA_DIR /
PERSISTENT_CONF_CACHE instead of hardcoded /boot/config/ or /tmp/ paths, so the
ecosystem works in both internal and appdata storage modes.
PHP layer (watchdog.php, partnership.php, fallback.php, monitor.php, snapshot.php,
config.php): all state reads switched to STATE_DIR constant; remote state reads use
the new vv_remote_state_cmd() helper which resolves the remote's SCRIPTS_DIR via
their varaverk.cfg before building the path.
conf_sync.sh: fixed SCRIPTS_ROOT → SCRIPTS_DIR bug on MY_CONF path; added
_remote_scripts_dir() to resolve partner's SCRIPTS_DIR before SCP pull.
fallback.php page: added controls card (PARTNERSHIP_ENABLED, FALLBACK_ENABLED,
FALLBACK_RSYNC_ENABLED toggles), status grid, and settings card.
README and Manual updated for System_Essentials, Watchdogs, Fallback, Rsync,
Media, Monitors, Orchestrators, Partnership: added new scripts (conf_sync,
conf_cache_save/restore, conf_cache_watchdog, play_state_sync, start_webhook_listener,
upgrade_webhook_handler), corrected all stale /boot/config/ state file paths to
$STATE_DIR/$DATA_DIR, noted webgui/php_fpm/mover/user_scripts scripts moved to
Plugin/unraid/System_Essentials, fixed start_webhook_listener.sh header (Node.js,
not PHP -S).
- Move SCRIPTS_DIR/DATA_DIR/STATE_DIR from appdata to /boot/config/plugins/varaverk
- All state files now in STATE_DIR (no more /tmp or /boot/config root writes)
- Bootstrap: Gitea-first clone with GitHub fallback, no array dependency
- varaverk.cfg seeded with Gitea connection settings
- .gitignore: add State_Files/, varaverk.cfg, varaverk-*.txz
- Partnership/transcode/fallback scripts use STATE_DIR variables
- PHP config.php: DATA_DIR/STATE_DIR constants, VV_SETUP_STATE_FILE dynamic
- deploy.sh PROD_ROOT updated to plugin flash dir

partnership_onboard.sh (--phase1-only):
- Test if SSH already works first (BatchMode) — skip ssh-copy-id if yes
- If ssh-copy-id fails (no TTY in background): soft-fail, generate key locally,
print pubkey for manual install, write HOST2_KEY_READY=true, run local setup
- Only skip conf push if SSH truly unavailable; otherwise proceeds normally
- Exit 0 with clear manual-step instructions instead of hard failure
include/partnership.php:
- Read HOST2_KEY_READY from setup.db; expose as key_ready on remote nodes
pages/partnership.php:
- Node card: amber "Key generated · install on HOST2 then Push Conf" badge
when key_ready=true and phase=0
- "Push Conf (key installed)" button appears when key_ready=true — runs
--phase1-only --skip-ssh (assumes user manually did ssh-copy-id)
- vvPtPushConf() top-level function
partnership_manager.sh:
- --local-only flag for --onboard: skips remote pre-flight, WebUI reconfig,
state push; runs FolderView3 folder creation + writes HOST1_LOCAL_DONE=true
to setup.db + pushes it; exits without writing ACTIVE (partnership not yet
established until Phase 2)
partnership_onboard.sh:
- Phase 1 exit now runs partnership_manager.sh --onboard --local-only after
SSH + conf push, so HOST1 is fully configured on its own side before Phase 2
include/partnership.php:
- vv_pt_nodes() reads HOST1_LOCAL_DONE from setup.db; exposes as local_done
on the self node (null for remote nodes)
pages/partnership.php:
- Self node card shows green "Local setup complete · waiting for partner"
badge when local_done=true
- Actions: "Complete HOST1 Setup" button appears when HOST1 hasn't run local
setup yet but HOST2 is already at phase 1 — lets user trigger it manually
- vvPtLocalSetup() top-level function calls partnership_manager.sh via run.php
