Every orchestrator invoked its children differently — four near-duplicate
run_job() copies, a differently-shaped run_watchdog(), or plain inline bash
calls, each with its own take on path resolution, pass/fail naming, and
dry-run threading. Extracted one shared run_orch_child() into common.sh so
there's a single place to fix or extend this behavior going forward.
Along the way: watchdog_orchestrator.sh and monthly_maintenance.sh were
checking $VERBOSE, a variable nothing in the codebase ever assigns, so --log
silently did nothing beyond basic logging on those two. Fixed to
$ENABLE_LOGGING. watchdog_orchestrator.sh and array_started.sh had no
trailing exit, so their exit codes reflected whatever the last command
happened to return rather than actual success/failure. transcode_management.sh
had no failure notification and no summary at all. Also made
transcode_management.sh's two-script pipeline config-driven
(TRANSCODE_MANAGEMENT_SCRIPTS in master.conf) instead of hardcoded, for room
to extend it later without editing the orchestrator itself.
Every script now has the established header format: PURPOSE with ─────── separator,
OPERATIONAL MODEL, DESIGN PRINCIPLES, OPERATIONAL SAFEGUARDS, CONFIGURATION, and
RUNTIME MODES — structured with full ====== banner sections throughout.
Orchestrators converted from compact ── inline format to full banners. Stale
emby-fallback and dirty sync references removed from Plugin/user_script_plug-in.sh.
All bash scripts are now platform-neutral. Unraid-specific paths, commands,
and service checks moved to Plugin/unraid/adapter.sh. Core scripts call
platform_*() functions exclusively — no direct OS paths in runtime logic.
New adapter functions: platform_storage_path, platform_webui_install_path,
platform_scripts_dir_probe_cmd, platform_setup_db_path, platform_storage_healthy,
platform_is_service_enabled, platform_get_temp_thresholds, platform_disk_states_path,
platform_rebuild_container, platform_push_conf, platform_push_setup_state,
platform_get_templates_dir, platform_send_os_notification.
Partnership services stack (Emby/Jellyfin/Seerr/SeerrFin) added as third
onboarding stack alongside auth and arr stacks.
- Config/threshold dumps at startup in every script (retry counts, timeouts, sizes, thresholds)
- Per-item detail in verbose: container images, timing per container/share/job, image ID diffs
- Orchestrators: watchdog cycle now logs array state, grace state, per-script timing; transcode_management shows ramdisk state before each cycle; critical_sync logs share list and maintenance scripts; coffee report logs server state at run time
- Summary counts replaced with names in verbose where previously only counts were shown

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.
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)
