kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Fable 5 14b41c8025 fix(bkp-volume): refuse to restore into an unmounted backing store
Docker mounts a volume that declares its own backing store (Options set: nfs,
cifs, bind) only while a container holds it. recover.py resolved the volume's
Mountpoint and rsynced into it regardless, so with the consuming stack stopped -
the state its own docstring demands - the payload landed on the node's disk
under the bare mountpoint directory, and the next stack start mounted the real
backing store over it: a restore that reports success, delivers nothing, and
leaves an invisible, unreclaimable orphan behind.

That orphan had weight. In run 30859490335 the swarm drill's [9/9] volume leg
restored ~1 GiB of nextcloud_data onto the manager's 30 GiB loop device in
exactly the minute the device crossed SeaweedFS's 2 GiB minFreeSpace floor -
the last straw on a device already >=93% consumed (the sizing is ea14535f4) -
after which every authenticated Nextcloud request died on an unwritable object
store.

recover.py now probes the mountpoint with `mountpoint -q` (over ssh for
--docker-host) whenever the volume declares Options, and dies naming the
mechanism and the way out instead of writing a single byte. Plain local volumes
without Options keep the old path untouched - their _data directory on the node
disk is the legitimate target.

The drill skips its [9/9] volume leg for such volumes with the reason in the
log: its data restore already happens in [8/9] straight into the NFS export,
which is the restore path the role's README prescribes for NFS-backed volumes
on swarm. The leg never proved anything for them - it only filled the disk.

Three new unit tests pin the contract: unmounted refused, mounted accepted,
remote probed via ssh with the exact command line.

Script Collection

This directory contains automation scripts used across the project.

  • system/ contains host and system-facing helpers.

  • container/ contains helpers that run inside the local container.

  • github/ contains GitHub workflow helper scripts.

  • For the canonical Make target index, see make.md.

  • 🛠️ Organize operational helpers for development, CI, release, and maintenance

  • 🧭 Separate responsibilities into focused subdirectories with clear scope

  • 📚 Keep script-based workflows discoverable and easier to navigate

The scope of this folder is script organization at the repository level. Detailed responsibilities belong in the README files of the respective subdirectories.
