- 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

appdata-Failover → appdata-Fallback:
All .md files updated — scripts and confs already used appdata-Fallback.
Share was renamed; docs were the only stale references.
critical_sync_maintenance.sh: */15 → */30, 96/day → 48/day:
critical_sync_maintenance.sh header, master.conf, host1/2.conf comments,
Orchestrators README, User Script Plug-in README, Partnership README/manual/script,
Docker_Essentials README/downloaders_reset.sh, Fallback README,
weekly_sync_maintenance.sh, user_script_plug-in.sh all updated.
rsync_emby_failover User Script superseded:
Emby dirty sync was already in HOST1_CRITICAL_SYNC_SHARES — it now runs inside
critical_sync_maintenance.sh every 30min alongside auth sync and partnership check.
Section in User Script Plug-in README marked for deletion from plugin.
transcode_management.sh: */3 → */7:
transcode_management.sh, transcode_manager.sh, transcode_cleanup.sh headers,
Transcodes README/manual, Orchestrators README, User Script Plug-in README,
user_script_plug-in.sh all updated.
array_start.sh → array_started.sh (bulk rename — actual file has always been
array_started.sh; docs consistently used the wrong name across 9 files)
failover.sh → fallback.sh (bulk rename — script is Fallback/fallback.sh;
docs used the old name throughout)
FAILOVER_HOST2_RUNS_FOR_HOST1_TIER1 → FALLBACK_HOST2_COVERS_HOST1_TIER1
(README.md — wrong variable name, actual vars use FALLBACK_ prefix and
COVERS_ not RUNS_FOR_)
docker_watchdog.sh attribution: "started by array_started.sh" → "called every
minute by watchdog_orchestrator.sh" (docker_watchdog is not in ARRAY_START_SCRIPTS)
server_reboot.sh shutdown sequence: step 7 "rc.docker stop" → calls
array_stopping.sh (user_scripts, fallback, rsync, mover, docker_container_stop)
Rsync manual ARRAY_START_SCRIPTS list: removed stability_watchdog and
docker_watchdog (now in watchdog_orchestrator); failover → fallback
arr_sync.sh bidirectional union replaced the old split-ownership model.
Old: HOST1 owns Movies/TV/Music, HOST2 owns Anime — each arr manages
different shares to avoid conflicts.
New: arr_sync.sh keeps all arr databases in union. Either server can
download to any share at any time. The union is the source of truth.
Auth stack references left intact — HOST1 still owns auth config
(one-way sync to HOST2). Only media library ownership language updated.
Files changed:
README.md — server block + share annotations
Fallback/README-Fallback.md — role line + Split Source of Truth section
Orchestrators/README-Orchestrators — daily sync share comments
Rsync/Manual-Rsync.md — DEFAULT_RSYNC_OPTS comment block
Media/README-Media.md — HOST AWARENESS section
22 scripts used docker without verifying it's present. Consistent with the
pattern already established in Docker_Essentials scripts. Added after acquire_lock
and before detect_hosts in each script's setup section.
- downloaders_reset: connection check block before slskd API sections;
triggers PUT /api/v0/server reconnect if disconnected, polls 60s,
gates Stuck Searches and Dead Transfer Records on SLSKD_CONNECTED
- Sync all modified/new/deleted files from v2 refactor across Docker_Essentials,
Media, Monitors, Partnership, Rsync, Tools, Transcodes, unRAID_Essentials,
common.sh, master confs, and new Manual/README docs
Fallback runs as a bare subprocess (cmdline: bash .../Fallback/fallback.sh),
not via /tmp/user.scripts, so user_scripts_stop.sh cannot find it.
Adding --stop mode closes that gap in the array shutdown sequence.
fallback.sh --stop: reads lock file (/tmp/unraid_locks/fallback.lock) to
get the running PID, sends SIGTERM (hits the existing trap that sets
FALLBACK_RUNNING=false), waits up to 10s, SIGKILLs if still alive.
master.conf: insert Fallback/fallback.sh --stop as step 2 in
ARRAY_STOP_SCRIPTS (after user_scripts_stop, before rsync_stop).
user_script_plug-in.sh: update ARRAY STOPPING block to show 5-step order
and add v2.5 changelog entry.
common.sh:
- Add resolve_tailscale_ip() helper — tries `tailscale ip -4` first, falls back to
parsing `tailscale status` output; handles hosts where MagicDNS short-name resolution
is not active
- Add PARTNERSHIP_OWN_CONTAINERS alias in detect_hosts()
- Add aliasing for 4 Emby provisioning vars (PARTNERSHIP_PROVISION_EMBY_ADMIN,
PARTNERSHIP_EMBY_ADMIN_USER, PARTNERSHIP_EMBY_ADMIN_PASS, PARTNERSHIP_EMBY_PORT)
Partnership/partnership_manager.sh:
- Replace 9 bare `tailscale ip -4` calls with resolve_tailscale_ip()
- Add read_remote_conf_var() and read_remote_conf_array() — SSH to mirror, source its
own load_config.sh + detect_hosts(), return aliased variable; solves sparse-checkout
problem where HOST1 cannot read master_host2.conf directly
- Add derive_short_name() — strips unraid- prefix, capitalises first char
- Add cleanup_partner_containers() — removes partner containers via FolderView3 folder
if enabled, else falls back to FALLBACK_*_COVERS_*_TIER* arrays
- Add cleanup_owner_containers_on_mirror() — SSH to mirror, stops and removes containers
matching *-${OWNER_SHORT} naming convention
- Add start_own_stack() and start_mirror_own_stack() — restart own containers locally
or on mirror via SSH using PARTNERSHIP_OWN_CONTAINERS
- Add provision_emby_admin() — reads mirror credentials via read_remote_conf_var, checks
for username collision, creates user + sets password + grants admin policy via Emby API
- Add revoke_emby_admin() — looks up mirror username on local Emby, deletes via REST API
- Wire offboard paths (both mirror-initiated and owner-initiated) to call container
cleanup and stack restart; update --check finalisation paths accordingly
- Fix write_state_file in --onboard not gated on DRY_RUN (was writing ACTIVE state on
dry runs)
master_host1.conf:
- Add HOST1_PARTNERSHIP_OWN_CONTAINERS array
- Add partnership Emby provisioning config (toggle + port + per-host credentials)
master_host2.conf:
- Add HOST2_PARTNERSHIP_OWN_CONTAINERS array
- Add HOST2_PARTNERSHIP_EMBY_ADMIN_USER and HOST2_PARTNERSHIP_EMBY_ADMIN_PASS
Tailscale fix applied to:
- Initial_run/ssh_setup.sh (2 callsites)
- unRAID_Essentials/rsync_stop.sh (1 callsite)

Arr sync (new):
- Media/arr_sync.sh — full mesh bidirectional sync across all HOST* nodes
- Lidarr (MusicBrainz), Sonarr (TVDB), Radarr (TMDB) all handled in one script
- Remote API keys read live from config.xml via SSH — never stored in conf files
- Shared blocklist (DATA_DIR/arr_sync_blocklist.tsv) merged from all nodes at runtime
- Graceful skip if arr not configured locally or not reachable on a remote node
- --blocklist-add / --blocklist-remove / --blocklist-list management flags
- daily_sync_maintenance.sh — arr sync runs as explicit phase before rsync
- partnership_onboard.sh — Step 3 bootstraps merged library on both sides at onboard
- master.conf — ARR_SYNC_* config block, DOCKER_APPDATA_BASE
Rsync / cleanup:
- DEFAULT_RSYNC_OPTS — removed --delete; arr_cleanup.sh owns orphan enforcement
- lidarr_cleanup.sh — removed HOST1-only guard; runs on any node with Lidarr configured
Config architecture:
- HOST1/HOST2 hostnames moved from master_host*.conf → master.conf (not credentials)
- Sparse checkout now works correctly: each server only needs its own host conf
- detect_hosts() still resolves MY_ID + REMOTE_ID via master.conf hostname values
Bug fix:
- common.sh line 493 — watchdog toggle eval had broken quoting; all SYS_WATCHDOG_CHECK_*
globals were silently set to empty instead of their configured values
