The subject of the issue was whether the backups were a guess. That was
settled on 14.08. with restored row counts rather than an assurance, and
the title has been wrong ever since. It also sat at in-progress for a week
without work. Third issue today with the same stale-head class.
Two things measured while closing, neither of them in the text:
restore-drill has never fired on schedule. lastScheduleTime is none - the
job was created on 14.08. and runs on the 4th, so the first automatic run
is 04.09. Only the manual run has passed. Every other cronjob in the
cluster shows a fresh timestamp; this one does not. Not a fault, but
"automated" and "proven" are not the same thing.
The Synapse media are backed up and the restore is untested. synapse-backup
mounts the PVC and archives /media/media_store - the run of 21.08. held 320
files and 216 MB, which would not add up without media. The way back is
written down and explicitly not automated, and nobody has walked it.
The homelab item is dropped rather than carried anywhere: the homelab is
not part of this project, and it should not have been listed as remaining
work in the first place.
