   - Read paths: an object at or below `policy.inline_max_bytes` (16 MiB by default) is teed to the client and to the local store in a single source read; a larger object or a Range read streams through and a background pull stores the whole object. A HEAD miss is proxied to the source and stores nothing (`policy.head = local_only` disables it). Every source-backed response carries `x-rustfs-on-demand-migration: source`
   - Protections: a per-source circuit breaker, a per-key negative cache, singleflight per key, a concurrency limit and a bounded pull queue shared by the inline and background paths, an optional bandwidth limit, an anti-loop request marker, and the shared outbound-endpoint (SSRF) policy
   - Metrics under `rustfs_on_demand_migration_*` (`requests_total`, `pulled_bytes_total`, `pulled_objects_total`, `pull_failures_total`, `inflight_pulls`, `queue_depth`, `source_latency_seconds_*`, `breaker_state`), mirrored per node by the admin status route
-  - Limitations: listings show only local objects (the source is not merged into `ListObjectsV2`); PUT and DELETE never reach the source; a source object updated after it was pulled is not re-fetched; SSE-C source objects are unsupported and answer 424; `Last-Modified` on a pulled object is the local write time, with the source timestamp kept in metadata
+  - Listings: `ListObjects` v1 remains local with ordinary key markers. `ListObjectsV2` can merge source objects when `policy.list_through = true`; this is off by default
+  - Upgrade and rollback: finish upgrading every node before enabling ODM. An rc.5 node that writes bucket configuration drops the ODM fields from metadata; neither a later restart nor moving the service out of ECStore recovers them. Before rollback, disable ODM and securely retain the original full configuration and credentials. After every node returns to a compatible version, restore and validate that configuration. Redacted exports cannot replace the credential backup; source-only objects are unavailable through RustFS while ODM is disabled. See the upgrade and rollback section of `docs/operations/on-demand-migration.md`
+  - Optional Google dependencies: default and `full` server builds retain native GCS support. `cargo build -p rustfs --no-default-features --features ftps,webdav` excludes Google SDKs while preserving configuration decoding and redaction; native GCS ODM and tier operations require the `gcs` feature. Do not use that build with existing GCS-tiered data

 - **NATS JetStream Publish Path**: Opt-in at-least-once delivery for the NATS notify and audit targets. A NATS Core publish flushes to the connection without awaiting a broker acknowledgement, so an event can be lost across a broker restart or a reconnect after the send queue has already cleared it. A queued event now clears only after the JetStream `PublishAck`, so bucket notifications survive those interruptions. Off by default and byte-identical to the NATS Core path when disabled.
   - Three configuration keys per target: `JETSTREAM_ENABLE`, `JETSTREAM_STREAM_NAME`, and `JETSTREAM_ACK_TIMEOUT_SECS`, under the `RUSTFS_NOTIFY_NATS_` and `RUSTFS_AUDIT_NATS_` prefixes
   - Durable store-and-forward with a stable dedup id sent as the `Nats-Msg-Id` header, so a replay after a crash is collapsed by the server duplicate window

+The hook runs `cargo fmt --all --check` when staged files include Rust source. It does not compile the workspace or run tests. Fix formatting with `cargo fmt --all`, inspect and stage the result, then commit again.
 
-```bash

+`pre-commit install` resolves Git's hook directory for linked worktrees and preserves an existing hook in migration mode. If you use `core.hooksPath`, keep that hook manager and integrate `pre-commit run` there; the installer refuses to silently replace that configuration.

 The pull pipeline has no separate loop of its own: a bucket's queue dispatcher starts lazily on the first background pull and is cancelled when the bucket's state is rebuilt or removed, and each inline pull commits in a task that outlives its request so a client disconnect cannot truncate the stored object. Neither the switch nor the config is re-read by the workers: the bucket-metadata publish hook rebuilds the state, which is the only desired-state path.

Remove legacy import only after all supported direct-upgrade and rollback readers understand committed snapshots and migration tooling confirms that no retained or restorable legacy journal requires it. This does not enable a new writer or change the automatic legacy consumer.
 - `backlog-1337` legacy restore orphan recovery: releases that predate the restore worker-lock marker can leave a valid operation-id and `ongoing-request="true"` after cancellation or process failure, with no durable liveness proof. New servers allow an exact, non-nil legacy generation to be superseded only when its consistently parsed request date is at least 24 hours old. Remove the clock-based legacy fallback after the minimum supported direct-upgrade release writes the v1 worker-lock marker on every restore and operators have resolved every retained pre-v1 ongoing generation.
 - `backlog-2133-tier-delete-chunk-parent` bounded tier-delete dispatch compatibility: prefixes at or below the legacy manifest limit keep the byte-compatible v1 single-manifest protocol, while larger prefixes place a chunk-parent sentinel at the original deterministic root path and use operation-scoped child manifests. Older binaries reject the sentinel and child paths, preserving the v6 sole-owner downgrade fence instead of starting a competing local delete. Remove the v1 reader and fail-closed mixed-version sentinel only after every supported rollback release validates the parent/child protocol and migration tooling confirms that no retained v1 dispatch manifest remains.
 - `tokio-tar-extension-limits` bounded archive parser hardening: Snowball extraction depends on precedence-resolved MinIO PAX metadata; per-entry and cumulative extension limits; a physical-entry limit; cancellation-safe parsing and ownership of large streamed members; fused streams after errors; and compatibility with minio-go streams that omit the two-block terminator. Swift bulk extraction also uses the same fork. Keep the reviewed pin while the Snowball path is prototyped against tar-codec/tar-framing. Remove it only after a released API exposes the effective allowed vendor records, RustFS provides a cancellation-safe handoff for borrowed member payloads, footerless input is accepted solely when authenticated request framing proves EOF immediately after a complete member, the existing resource-limit, cancellation, error-fuse, and real minio-go fixtures pass against the replacement, and Swift no longer depends on the fork.

+## On-Demand Migration Service
+
+Read-through, backfill and external pull orchestration belong in an application
+service under `rustfs/src/<service>/`. ECStore owns the storage primitives they
+need, including atomic commits, lifecycle locks and on-disk metadata. A service
+may use these primitives without moving its provider clients or scheduling
+policy into the engine.
+
+`rustfs/src/on_demand_migration/` owns source clients, pull scheduling, list
+merging, runtime state and backfill orchestration. Its `storage_api.rs` is the
+only ECStore facade boundary. Object write-back still enters the application's
+internal PUT and multipart use cases, including the atomic create-only commit,
+delete-marker protection, encryption, quota and notification rules.
+
+ECStore stores the existing ODM bytes and update timestamp without interpreting
+the JSON. Every metadata cache install or removal publishes those bytes through
+`BUCKET_CONFIG_PUBLISH_HOOK`; the application decodes them and synchronously
+withdraws corrupt configurations. Configuration writes validate structure and
+deployment constraints in the admin use case before the incarnation-fenced
+metadata update. Backfill reads metadata from its store's instance context and
+preserves the checkpoint ETag compare-and-set, lease and tail-drained writes.
+
+An ODM runtime is bound to the bucket incarnation published with its metadata,
+not just its name. Source reads and write-back reject a different incarnation.
+Checkpoint writes hold the user bucket's lifecycle fence through their complete
+commit and read-back, even if their caller stops waiting; the storage commit
+also observes lock loss. Deleting and recreating a bucket must not let work for
+its previous incarnation repopulate objects or checkpoints.
+
+Observability owns its metric DTOs and accepts application snapshot callbacks;
+it does not depend on the ODM runtime. The application registers both bucket
+and backfill snapshots during startup, before metadata and metric collection.
+
+This boundary does not change `.metadata.bin`, the ODM wire format or the
+backfill checkpoint format. An older binary may still discard unknown metadata
+fields when it rewrites a bucket; service relocation does not make mixed-version
+configuration writes or rollback preserve ODM configuration.

 On-Demand Migration (ODM) attaches an external S3-compatible **source bucket** to a local RustFS bucket. When a client GETs a key that does not exist locally, RustFS fetches it from the source, streams it to the client, and stores it locally in the same pass; every later read is served locally. It is a pull-style, lazy migration path — the RustFS equivalent of Cloudflare R2 Sippy, Tigris shadow buckets, and Alibaba Cloud OSS / Tencent COS mirror-back-to-origin.
 
 The module is on by default (rustfs/backlog#2163); set `RUSTFS_ON_DEMAND_MIGRATION_ENABLED=false` on every node to turn it off (`rustfs/src/module_switches.rs`). With the switch off, the runtime never intervenes on a read and the admin `PUT` route refuses with `OnDemandMigrationDisabled`. Reads of the configuration and of the status endpoint keep working while the switch is off, so a disabled deployment can still be inspected. The switch only decides whether the module may act at all: a bucket with no `on-demand-migration.json` is never resolved by the runtime and makes no source call, so turning the module on changes nothing for buckets you have not configured.
 
+## Upgrade and rollback compatibility
+
+ODM configuration is stored in two additional keys in the existing bucket metadata map. The metadata format version remains `1` for MinIO compatibility. RustFS `1.0.0-rc.5` only re-encodes its 44 known keys: a bucket configuration write through an rc.5 node discards the ODM configuration and timestamp, even if another node originally wrote them. Restarting a newer binary cannot recover the discarded values. This also means ODM is not supported during a rolling upgrade that still allows rc.5 nodes to write bucket metadata.
+
+Upgrade every node before enabling ODM. Before any rollback to rc.5, stop new migration work, retain a secure copy of the original full configuration and credentials, and disable ODM on every bucket and node. The redacted configuration GET and metadata export are not credential backups. Objects still present only at the source cannot be read through RustFS while ODM is disabled or rc.5 is running; finish migration first, redirect those reads to the source, or plan a maintenance window. After all nodes return to a compatible release, reapply and validate the saved configuration; already stored local objects remain local. Turning the global module switch off alone does not make an old metadata writer preserve these keys.
+
+The ignored `upgrade_compatibility_test::rc5_rollback_requires_restoring_odm_configuration` test pins release commit `40a2470feb567201165a5b809b7598bb4b1f68f5`, restarts against the same data directory, writes bucket tags through rc.5, and verifies configuration recovery after returning to the current binary. Set `RUSTFS_UPGRADE_SOURCE_BINARY` to that release's executable and run `cargo test -p e2e_test rc5_rollback_requires_restoring_odm_configuration -- --ignored --test-threads=1`. The test records a known old-writer limitation; it does not certify mixed-version ODM operation.
+
+## Optional Google dependencies
+
+The default and `full` server builds include the `gcs` Cargo feature to preserve native GCS migration and existing GCS tier support. For a server without Google SDK dependencies, build with `cargo build -p rustfs --no-default-features --features ftps,webdav`. Add `gcs` to that feature list to restore native GCS support. The ECStore library has no default Google dependency; library users that need GCS tiers must enable its `gcs` feature.
+
+Both builds can read, redact and preserve GCS configuration. A build without `gcs` rejects native ODM client construction with `OnDemandMigrationBackendNotCompiled` (HTTP 501); persisted native sources report an unavailable client. GCS tier initialization returns `XRustFSAdminTierTypeUnsupported` (HTTP 501). Do not deploy that build to a cluster with GCS tiers containing transitioned objects: the configuration remains intact, but reading their remote data requires a GCS-capable binary. The `gcs` provider using HMAC credentials and the S3 interoperability API remains available in every build; only `gcs_native` and native GCS tier clients need the feature.
+
+## List continuation token rollout
+
+`RUSTFS_ON_DEMAND_MIGRATION_LIST_V2_TOKENS` defaults to `false`; unset or invalid boolean values also keep it off. It controls only whether a v1 listing may first issue a v2 continuation token after an empty truncated merged page. Every node with this reader support accepts existing v2 tokens and continues their budget even with the switch off. Ordinary pages that consume an object or common prefix retain the original v1 token shape.
+
+Leave the switch off while deploying v2 reader support to every node that can receive a continuation request, including nodes behind other load-balancer routes. Then set it to `true` in each node's environment and restart those nodes to enable issuance. A v1-only binary rejects v2 with `400 InvalidArgument` before the source-error policy runs; neither `not_found` nor turning off list-through makes that old reader compatible. With issuance still off, a new v1 chain retains the existing limitation: an empty source cursor cycle spanning requests can continue indefinitely. The default rollout does not claim to fix that chain until issuance is enabled.
+
+An active v2 budget rejects the sixteenth consecutive merged page that consumes no new object/common prefix and reaches no new end-of-list state. The first fifteen empty pages can be resumed; with the existing two-fetch-per-side limit, that interval costs at most 32 fetches per side, including the failing request. A key, common prefix, or a newly exhausted side on the sixteenth request succeeds and resets the budget. A side that was already exhausted does not reset it again. This is a resource bound, not proof of a cursor cycle: an unusually long but valid empty source-page chain also reaches the limit. Tokens are unsigned base64 JSON, so this budget applies to clients that continue with the returned token unchanged; replaying or editing a token can reset it, and it is not a malicious-client defense or a global request quota. The two-fetch-per-side request limit and existing source rate limiter still apply. A source failure follows `policy.source_error`: `propagate` returns `424 SourceUnavailable` with `invalid_pagination`; `not_found` returns the fetched local listing with `x-rustfs-on-demand-migration-list: local_only`. A blocking local-side failure returns `InternalError`, without silently discarding local entries.
+
+For rollback, first turn issuance off on every node. Keep v2-capable readers available for outstanding v2 chains: switching issuance off does not erase their budgets, and tokens have no expiration that proves those chains have drained. Route those continuations to compatible readers or have clients explicitly restart their listings before restoring v1-only binaries. Restarting a listing is a new scan and can repeat entries. Do not roll back readers while assuming the issuance switch makes existing v2 tokens disappear.

-Azure Blob has no preset; a native provider is deferred (rustfs/backlog#2166).
+Every backend answers the same trait contract, pinned by `backend_contract.rs` in `rustfs/src/on_demand_migration/`, and the three differences that contract allows are the ones documented here.
+
+`azure` differs in two of them. Its ETag is a concurrency token rather than a digest of the bytes, so it is stored as `odm-source-etag` provenance and never used as the expected MD5 of a pulled object — the write-back integrity check falls back to the local digest. And its listing paginates only with an opaque marker: there is no "start after this key" form, so a caller that asks for one gets `Unsupported` instead of a listing that silently starts over.
+
+`gcs_native` differs in the other two. Its listing also has no exclusive "start after" form (`startOffset` is inclusive), so it refuses one the same way. And GCS has no object tagging at all: `policy.copy_tags` finds no tags rather than failing the pull, because GCS custom metadata is already carried by the head mapping. Its ETag is normally usable: the `x-goog-hash` MD5 is converted to hex and checked against the pulled bytes, except on a composite object, which has no MD5 and whose ETag is then treated as opaque.
 
 The "Interop evidence" column names the job in `.github/workflows/on-demand-migration-interop.yml` (rustfs/backlog#2167) that last exercised the preset against a real implementation, and is where a provider difference belongs once the lane finds one. That lane is report-only and scheduled: it runs `crates/e2e_test/src/on_demand_migration/interop_test.rs` — the same case bodies as the merge-gate suite, with the source injected through `RUSTFS_ODM_INTEROP_*` — against a pinned MinIO container, and against each cloud provider whose repository secrets are configured. A provider without secrets is skipped with a note in the run summary rather than failing, so "no difference recorded yet" means exactly that and not "verified clean"; see [ci-gates.md](../testing/ci-gates.md) for the row.

+ODM merged continuation tokens use a NUL-prefixed JSON envelope inside the existing base64 encoding. NUL is not valid in a local object key, so a legitimate JSON-shaped key can never be mistaken for a merged cursor. Upgrade every node before using list-through, and restart any in-progress ODM listing issued by an older build: its unframed JSON tokens cannot be distinguished from legitimate local keys. Ordinary local listing tokens remain unchanged. Tokens issued by this build can still resume the local side after list-through is disabled.
+
+Source `HEAD` responses with status 404 require a successful bucket probe before being negative-cached. The source credential therefore needs permission for `HeadBucket` (S3 `ListBucket`); a prefix-restricted ListBucket policy can deny that probe, in which case the response is a source failure rather than a cached miss. A missing/inaccessible source bucket, a missing source version, or an ambiguous GET 404 is not proof that the requested key is absent. Conditional GET validators are checked against the actual source GET metadata as well as the advisory HEAD; a missing required validator fails with 424. Source LIST entries without a key or a non-negative size fail the page rather than fabricating an empty object.
+
+Write-back currently requires namespace locking enabled and exactly one pool with one erasure set. Other topologies fail write-back explicitly as `unsupported`: source reads remain available, but backfill cannot complete successfully or certify cutover. This restriction avoids relying on a set-local condition across distinct pool or lock domains; it does not restrict ordinary S3 writes. Full cross-pool migration requires a globally fenced commit protocol.
+
+On the supported topology, write-back uses a create-only check under the local storage commit lock for both single-part PUT and multipart completion. A client write that commits while ODM is reading the source is preserved. With `respect_local_delete_marker=true`, a concurrent versioned deletion is preserved too. An explicit `respect_local_delete_marker=false` still permits revival; an unversioned deletion has no tombstone and therefore cannot be distinguished from a key that has never existed locally.

 Both knobs are read by the RustFS process that owns the replication target, at client build time; restart the server after changing them.
 
+### Remote tier transport timeouts
+
+Remote tier S3-compatible clients use separate transport budgets. These settings do not change bucket or site replication clients.
+
+| Variable | Default | Meaning |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `RUSTFS_TIER_REMOTE_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_SECS` | `10` | Maximum time to establish the remote tier TCP connection. |
+| `RUSTFS_TIER_REMOTE_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SECS` | `86400` | Maximum time for a remote tier request to reach response headers. The long default preserves large transition-upload headroom. |
+| `RUSTFS_TIER_REMOTE_RESPONSE_BODY_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECS` | `60` | Maximum time without a non-empty response-body chunk. Empty HTTP/2 frames do not count as progress. |
+
+All three values must be positive integers. Zero fails tier client initialization instead of silently disabling the boundary. An invalid integer is logged and falls back to the default; very large values are accepted and provide a correspondingly long effective budget. The values are read when the tier client is built; recreate or reload the tier configuration after changing them.
+

+## Lifecycle rule limits and evaluation
+
+Each lifecycle rule supports at most one `Transition` and one `NoncurrentVersionTransition`. A version can make one initial transition; chaining additional tiers after it reaches `complete` is not supported. Splitting stages across overlapping rules does not enable a transition chain. `PutBucketLifecycleConfiguration` rejects multiple entries in either transition array with `InvalidArgument`, including in disabled rules. Existing stored multi-entry arrays are not executed; replace each with a single intended destination. Independent expiration actions in the rule remain eligible.
+
+`Expiration.Days` and `Expiration.Date` are mutually exclusive. A request containing both is rejected instead of silently selecting the date. When expiration and transition are both eligible, expiration takes precedence; a failed earlier transition does not keep an expired object indefinitely. Deadlines select the earliest action within the same action class.
+
+Noncurrent expiration and transition have independent `NewerNoncurrentVersions` limits. A transition with a positive limit waits for a complete version-group evaluation to establish that enough newer noncurrent versions remain. Single-object evaluation, including the current manual transition and immediate-enqueue paths, conservatively defers these counted transitions to the lifecycle scanner. An unmet expiration retention limit does not suppress a separately eligible transition.
+
+An expired restored local copy can be cleaned up under Object Lock because the retained logical version and remote data remain intact. Cleanup requires a completed transition and still waits for pending or failed replication. The storage layer revalidates the source identity and restore metadata before removing the local copy; restore headers alone do not authorize cleanup.
+
 ## Free-version recovery controls
 
 The dedicated free-version recovery loop is enabled by default and is independent of the data scanner and heal switches. Setting `RUSTFS_SCANNER_ENABLED=false` does not stop this repair loop. Set `RUSTFS_TIER_FREE_VERSION_RECOVERY_ENABLED=false` before process startup to disable only the dedicated persisted-marker walk. That setting does not disable lifecycle workers or prevent another scanner path from discovering a free version, and it can leave remote cleanup markers pending for longer, so use it as a break-glass pressure control rather than a cleanup mechanism.

+## Packaged functional acceptance
+
+`rustfs-functional-chain.yml` dispatches the packaged-build suites in `rustfs-*-test.yml` on the shared lab runners. A failing suite step or job must fail its workflow. Report collection, cleanup, and dispatch of the next suite can still run with `always()`; continuing diagnostics does not make the failed suite successful.
+
+Workflow status preserves errors that the test scripts report. It does not establish complete execution or a common package identity across the chain: inspect the current run's case results, package identity, and test-script revision as well. A script that returns zero after a failed tool invocation needs its own result check.
