Kevin Veen-Birkenbach 23353ac878 infra(sys-service): centralize async control + pre-deploy backup safeguard
- Added MODE_BACKUP to trigger backup before the rest of the deployment

- sys-ctl-bkp-docker-2-loc: force linear sync and force flush when MODE_BACKUP is true

- Unified name resolution via system_service_name across handlers and tasks

- Introduced system_service_force_linear_sync and system_service_force_flush (rename from system_force_flush)

- Drive async/poll via system_service_async/system_service_poll using omit when disabled

- Propagated per-role overrides (cleanup, repair, cert tasks) for clarity and safety

- Minor formatting and consistency cleanups

Why: Ensure the backup runs before the deployment routine to safeguard data integrity.

  • Creates a directory for storing cleanup scripts.
  • Deploys a Python script that deletes old backup directories when disk usage is too high.
  • Configures a systemd service to run the cleanup script, with notifications via sys-ctl-alm-compose.

Purpose

The primary purpose of this role is to maintain optimal backup storage by automatically removing outdated backup versions when disk usage exceeds a specified threshold.

Features

  • Automated Cleanup: Executes a Python script to delete old backups.
  • Threshold-Based Deletion: Removes backups based on disk usage percentage.
  • Systemd Integration: Configures a systemd service to run cleanup tasks.
  • Dependency Integration: Works in conjunction with related roles for comprehensive backup management.
