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).
Previously HOST1 defined what it would run for HOST2 (FALLBACK_HOST1_COVERS_HOST2_TIER*).
Now each host defines what it wants run when IT goes down (FALLBACK_HOST1_TIER*), and the
covering server reads the down host's conf via the RAM/persistent cache.
get_tier_containers() reads FALLBACK_${REMOTE_ID}_TIER* instead of
FALLBACK_${MY_ID}_COVERS_${REMOTE_ID}_TIER*. Tier data migrated to the correct host confs.
Writeback paths and delays were already REMOTE_ID-based — no change needed there.
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
