A partner's Emby URL is http://localhost:8096 — true there, meaningless here —
so nobody queries a partner's media server directly. Each host reports its own
over the SSH call remote_arr_cache_writer.sh already makes, which keeps its API
keys on it and costs no extra connection. Local is the default: opening the tab
to check your own server should not first make you read past a partner's.
A partner with no cache is stated as not collected rather than omitted, because
an empty mesh view and a partner that is down look identical otherwise.
The counts need the entire library downloaded to compute six numbers — 16.0 MB
from Radarr and 5.5 MB from Sonarr, measured — and they were on the same
one-minute clock as queue depth and health, which pulled ~30 GB a day out of the
arrs to re-count records that had not changed. They now cache for fifteen
minutes against how often the numbers actually move: 7.6s to 3.0s per refresh.
Emby and Jellyfin get a card each: version, CPU, memory, uptime, streams, users
and transcodes, with update/restart flags. Two halves of one question — a server
answering happily at 145% CPU is a different situation from one at 8%, and
neither the app nor the container says so alone.
play_state_sync, media_shares_permissions and media_cleaner work on the same
files the arrs manage and were visible only by opening the Scheduler and reading
an orchestrator's log. Readable at all because run_orch_child() now writes a run
record and a per-script log for its children — this could not have been written
yesterday. Each card shows the sentence the script itself ended on rather than a
count re-derived here, since the three word their outcome differently and the
wording is the part worth reading.
The arr cleanups are entries in DAILY_MAINTENANCE_SCRIPTS, which the orchestrator
invokes with plain bash, so they never get the run record the primary parse needs
— every payload has come from the daily aggregate db. That path read every column
except the byte counts, leaving orphans_sz at its "0B" default, which is
invisible at zero orphans and would have read "12 orphans (0B)" the first time
there were any. 'total' had no source there and no reader anywhere, so it is gone.
Arr Sync now reads "disabled" rather than "never run" when its switch is off.
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.
- WEBGUI_PHP_WAIT was referenced by webgui_watchdog.sh but never defined
in master.conf, always silently falling back to a hardcoded default
- arrs.php/confform.php still pointed at Media/ for arr cleanup/discovery
scripts moved to Arrs_Stack/ in b4bc926 — broke the Arrs page's stats
and the per-script settings editor for those scripts
- docker_folders.php read directly from the optional folder.view3 plugin's
file instead of Varaverk's own docker_folders.json (the primary store
since the Docker tab got its own config) — left the Monitor page's
Docker Folders widget empty on any host without folder.view3 installed
- vv_wd_remote_data() read remote watchdog state files from hardcoded
/tmp or /boot/config paths instead of the remote's actual STATE_DIR
(which resolves dynamically and can differ under flash mode) — remote
node's Watchdog panel was always empty; same wrong path also used for
two local reads (system_watchdog_oom.db, watchdog_appdata_growth.db)
- rsync.php referenced a {HOST}_MONTHLY_SYNC_SHARES conf var that never
existed (monthly_maintenance.sh has no rsync section) — nulled out to
match the existing pattern used for the fallback window
- vv_arr_node_names() did a pointless identity array_map
- vv_dk_webui() had its own duplicate local-IP resolution instead of
using vv_local_ip(), despite config.php's comment claiming that exact
duplication was already consolidated
- Auth stack: fold cert monitor into Auth Stack page as fourth tab (Certs);
remove standalone cert page and top-level tab
- cert_monitor.sh: write JSON status cache to State_Files/cert_status.json
after each run; expose per-domain days/expiry via _CERT_DAYS/_CERT_EXPIRY globals
- api/cert.php: new — serves cached cert status; falls back to configured
domains as UNKN when no cache exists; POST action=run triggers live check
- arrs db fallbacks: vv_arr_cleanup_stats/discovery_stats/recovery_stats now
read from data/*.db files when log JSON files don't yet exist
- config.php vv_conf_vars(): unescape bash \$ → $ so passwords with dollar
signs read correctly from conf files
- host1.conf: fill in HOST1_NPM_USER/PASS and HOST1_LLDAP_USER/PASS
- Partnership adapter pattern: Unraid-specific container logic extracted to
Plugin/unraid/Partnership/; platform-agnostic structure stays in Partnership/
- First-run wizard: uniform multi-step flow for all hosts; HOST2 pull moved
to checklist; auto SSH keygen and API key creation on save
- api/checklist.php: live setup checklist with pull_master action
- Fullscreen toggle: hide Unraid header/menu; state persists via localStorage
Consolidations (config.php gains 5 shared utilities):
- vv_format_uptime() replaces 4 inline uptime-formatting blocks
- vv_parse_conf_scalar() replaces vv_arr_scalar/vv_wd_scalar/vv_fb_scalar/vv_media_conf_scalar
- vv_known_hosts() replaces vv_arr_known_hosts/vv_fb_known_hosts + inline parser in watchdog
- vv_parse_kv_db() replaces inline key=value parsing in snapshot and monitor
- vv_local_ip() replaces duplicate in docker_folders.php and inline in docker.php
All module-level function names kept as thin aliases so call sites unchanged.
Critical bug fixes:
- api/system.php: added require_once config.php and POST-only guard (no auth on shutdown)
- api/movescript.php + reorderarray.php: use vv_write_conf_raw (atomic) + vv_push_master_conf
- api/snapshot.php: share /tmp/vv_cpu_stat.json with vv_cpu_per_core() instead of own state file
Correctness:
- vv_cpu_per_core() and vv_network_stats(): atomic tmp+rename for state files (concurrent poll safety)
- ext_ip curl cache moved from /tmp/vv_ext_ip.cache to vv_cache_read/write (canonical cache dir)
- monitor_remote.php + board.php + snapshot.php: all use vv_cache_read/write instead of ad-hoc /tmp files
HTTP method guards added to write-only APIs that were missing them:
- api/scheduler.php, conf_toggle.php, flag_toggle.php
