 ## Troubleshooting

-**Endpoint blackhole scenario skipped** — `heal_erasure_disk_rebuild_test::tests::test_cluster_root_heal_recovers_after_target_endpoint_blackhole` installs a loopback `iptables` DROP rule and therefore needs `CAP_NET_ADMIN` (root or passwordless `sudo -n iptables`). A host where `iptables` is missing or cannot read the OUTPUT chain (typical inside an unprivileged container, where the nf_tables backend reports "Permission denied" even under `sudo`) logs a `heal_interruption_skipped` warning and returns without exercising heal. Set `RUSTFS_E2E_REQUIRE_NET_FAULT_INJECTION=1` on lanes that do provision the capability so a broken runner fails instead of skipping.

-UploadOutcomeUnknown@1 -> LocalCommitStarted@2 -> conditional record delete

-
-The create-only `UploadOutcomeUnknown@1` record is durable before the remote PUT. After PUT succeeds, the writer revalidates the source, Object Lock decision, tier generation, and fleet proof before one exact successor CAS to `LocalCommitStarted@2`; that successor carries the known remote version. After the local metadata commit, the writer conditionally deletes that exact record rather than persisting a redundant `Committed` generation. A crash before the PUT leaves an unknown record whose provider probe can prove absence. A crash after PUT leaves the canonical candidate under the unknown record. A crash after the commit fence leaves the exact remote tuple under `LocalCommitStarted`, and a crash after local commit lets recovery prove ownership transfer and remove only the record.
-
-The `UploadOutcomeUnknown@1 -> LocalCommitStarted@2` pair is the only compact direct edge. Legacy `UploadOutcomeUnknown@2 -> LocalCommitStarted@3` remains invalid, while historical receipt jumps keep their separately enumerated revision distances. This distinction lets existing v1 payload readers decode compact records without treating arbitrary skipped history as valid. If any peer is absent, old, unreachable, restarted with a different process epoch, or the topology changes, proof publication/revalidation fails closed and new attempts use the legacy profile. Planned downgrade first disables compact admission and drains live compact records; an older runtime reader retains or safely reconciles the v1 states, but an older decommission checkpoint validator can reject the compact successor and block pool completion.
-
 Separately, `mark_cleanup_pending` permits proof-checked model edges from `Uploaded`, `UploadOutcomeUnknown`, and `LocalCommitStarted`. Current production recovery emits `CleanupPending` after an expired `Uploaded` record wins the exact successor CAS, or when an expired `UploadOutcomeUnknown` probe returns `UnversionedPresent` or `VersionedPresent` with a non-nil identifier. `LocalCommitStarted` mismatch or missing-source recovery retains the record; that cleanup edge is currently exercised through the state-machine API and tests, not produced by runtime recovery. States that require a remote delete still require a known `TransitionRemoteVersion` kind. A probed versioned candidate whose identifier parses as a nil UUID is retained and never authorizes remote deletion.

 The remote candidate itself is named by `canonical_transition_remote_object` under `ilm/transition-transactions/<bucket-hash>/<transaction shards>/<transaction-id>/<write-id>`. That deterministic identity is what a provider probe or exact cleanup must bind; it is distinct from the internal transaction-record key.

-The compact transition-transaction v1 state profile has an implemented live homogeneous-fleet gate, but transition v2, manual job/task/result v1, and receipt v2 do not currently have a complete persisted-format negotiation for rolling downgrade. The approved transition-v2/control gate above is not current behavior.

+Transition transaction v1, manual job/task/result v1, and receipt v2 do not currently have an implemented persisted-format negotiation for rolling downgrade. The approved transition-v2/control gate above is not current behavior. Until the applicable gate is implemented, caller/operator orchestration must not enable writers whose records required recovery nodes cannot decode. The manual async endpoint does not enforce that fleet gate and a direct request proceeds to job creation. This caller-side fail-closed rule is stricter than treating an unknown record as absent.

 ### Current format compatibility decisions

 | Family/version | Current reader and writer behavior | Upgrade, downgrade, and ignore rule |
 |---|---|---|
-| Transition transaction v1 | Writers emit v1. A homogeneous live capability permits the compact `UploadOutcomeUnknown@1 -> LocalCommitStarted@2` profile; otherwise writers retain the legacy profile. The payload decoder rejects another schema, bad checksum, unknown state, or inconsistent transaction/remote identity. The current record-path parser accepts any shard/extra-component layout and uppercase hex when the final 32-hex UUID parses and matches the payload | There is no intentional ignore path, but exact lowercase canonical-path rejection remains an approved fix. During rolling upgrade, an unsupported or unavailable peer forces legacy writes. Before downgrade, disable compact admission and drain compact records because older decommission validators may conservatively reject the direct successor. V1 remains the only writer format until the approved v2 fleet gate is implemented; a v2 reader never rewrites an active v1 record |

Runtime capabilities advertise `enqueue_only` and `async`, but the async run handler does not consult a fleet capability gate and a direct request creates a job | Runtime recovery still needs exact lowercase canonical-path validation to prevent alias-driven duplicate work.

-### Admin heal start, retries, and budgets
-
-Admin heal has three separate budgets. Increasing one does not extend the others:
-
-| Budget | Existing behavior |
-|---|---|
-| Control request | A start/query/cancel envelope has a bounded lifetime derived from the internode RPC timeout, with room for the transport response. It bounds control execution, not the admitted repair task. The HTTP caller can also stop waiting independently. |
-| Task execution | `RUSTFS_HEAL_TASK_TIMEOUT_SECS` supplies the default of 300 seconds when the execution has no explicit timeout. Elapsed execution time is deducted before a recoverable scheduler retry, which keeps the request identity and remaining budget. Object/listing backoff and pressure pacing inside an execution consume that budget; time queued or in the scheduler's between-attempt backoff is not a new absolute wall-clock deadline. Zero is not an unlimited execution budget. |
-| Object/listing retry | A recursive bucket/prefix traversal retries recoverable failures at most three times after the initial attempt, with 2/4/8-second delays plus the existing task-derived jitter. Object retries also obey the bounded delayed window and its 30-second age, checked at safe boundaries; listing retries keep their cursor. These limits do not extend the task execution budget or force an in-flight storage operation to finish within the retry age. |
-
-For a large admin heal, select a finite configured execution budget appropriate to the expected work and contention, and inspect progress while it runs. Investigate stalled work and object failures before increasing this budget; a larger timeout must not hide lock or quorum problems. A longer HTTP or internode timeout does not keep a repair task alive past its execution budget. A successful start response returns the canonical token for accepted or merged work; it does not prove that repair has completed. Query that token without `forceStart`; terminal timeout/cancellation reports retain completed progress while the task report remains available.
-
-Capability preflight runs before constructing and admitting a start request. However, the public `cluster heal coordination unavailable` error can also follow a transport failure or an invalid coordinator response after a request was sent. An unknown or lost HTTP response is therefore not proof that no task was admitted.
-
-The coordinator can replay the result of the exact original RPC envelope within its existing replay lifetime and coordinator epoch. Reusing an ID with changed parameters or nonce is rejected. This bounded, process-local receipt cache is not a general HTTP idempotency key or a restart-surviving admission receipt. Each new HTTP start constructs a new request/envelope, and a fresh `forceStart` intentionally requests a distinct start: do not automatically resend it after an ambiguous response. A fresh non-forced request follows the configured overlap policy, rather than recovering the original receipt. The v3 API rejects `forceStart` combined with `clientToken` or `forceStop`.
-
-Implementation references: `rustfs/src/admin/handlers/heal.rs` (`submit_cluster_heal_start`, `new_heal_control_metadata`), `rustfs/src/storage/rpc/node_service.rs` (`execute_heal_control_envelope_with_manager`), `crates/protos/src/lib.rs` (`heal_control_execution_timeout`), and `crates/heal/src/heal/task.rs` (`retry_request_with_remaining_timeout`, `remaining_timeout`, `bucket_object_retry_delay`). These contracts do not replace the separate real response-loss, long-task, or start-latency validation lanes.
-
 ### Running admin heal pacing

 The manager passes its existing workload provider and a configuration snapshot into each admin execution. Bucket/prefix listing and object boundaries resample foreground pressure; erasure-set page workers also resample after earlier work releases page capacity. `High`, `Urgent`, and `force_start` do not exempt ordinary admin execution from this runtime pacing. The existing start-time bypass and overlap-control meanings are unchanged.

 Historical transition transactions in `upload_outcome_unknown` state can use an explicit two-stage operator workflow when the tier probe is ambiguous and the provider supports exact version deletion. The endpoint refuses transactions that are still inside their ownership window or are in any other state.

-Current fleets can produce two valid v1 state profiles. The legacy profile begins at `upload_started@1` and normally reaches `upload_outcome_unknown@2`, `uploaded`, `local_commit_started`, and `committed`. The compact profile is admitted only while every current member proves `transition_transaction_compaction_v1`; it begins at `upload_outcome_unknown@1` and moves directly to `local_commit_started@2` with a known remote version. Treat `upload_outcome_unknown@1` as a pre-PUT fence, not proof that PUT ran.

 Automatic retry state survives restart. Retryable transport/quorum failures use a 60-second exponential base capped at one hour and a deterministic 80-to-100-percent multiplier, so jitter never increases the capped delay. After 32 consecutive failures or seven days from the first persisted failure, automatic work stops at `operator_required`. Unsupported or ambiguous evidence goes directly to `retained_ambiguous`/`operator_required`; age alone never deletes it. Resolved controls, immutable exports, and completed disposition receipts have minimum 30-day, 90-day, and 365-day retention respectively, and are collected only after exact source absence, decommission, successor, and audit checks.

-### Retry a retained transition transaction
-
-For a `transition_transaction` control, inspect returns an additional `transition_retry` object when the exact transaction source and recovery-control generation are still consistent. It contains `retry_ready`, `control_revision`, `source_generation_sha256`, the current classification and counters, and a bounded refusal reason. A missing `transition_retry` with `transition_retry_not_ready_reason=source_or_control_not_ready` means the server could not reconstruct exact live evidence; do not retry from an older response.
-
-First perform a dry-run with the exact revision and source-generation digest returned by the latest inspect:
-
-```json
-POST /rustfs/admin/v3/ilm/recovery/records/<control-id>
-{
-  "action": "retry_transition_recovery",
-  "mode": "dry_run",
-  "expected_control_revision": 7,
-  "expected_source_generation_sha256": "<sha256>"
-}
-```
-
-After repairing the reported storage, tier, or capability problem, repeat inspect and dry-run, then execute with the newly observed values:
-
-```json
-POST /rustfs/admin/v3/ilm/recovery/records/<control-id>
-{
-  "action": "retry_transition_recovery",
-  "mode": "execute",
-  "expected_control_revision": 7,
-  "expected_source_generation_sha256": "<sha256>",
-  "confirm": true
-}
-```
-
-Execution performs one ETag-CAS update of the exact ownerless `retained_ambiguous` or `operator_required` control to `retrying`. It preserves the lifetime attempt count and failure history, clears only the consecutive-failure backoff, and does not mutate the transaction source or issue a tier PUT, GET, probe, or DELETE. The normal recovery worker then acquires a fresh bounded owner lease and repeats every source and remote proof before any side effect.
-
-A historical v1 `UploadStarted` record can return to `retained_ambiguous` because its bytes do not prove whether PUT reached the provider. `LocalCommitStarted` becomes terminal only when the local object still matches the recorded version ID, data directory, modification time, size, ETag, and exact transitioned remote tuple; otherwise it returns to `operator_required`. Retrying is therefore a bounded re-evaluation after an underlying repair, not an override of missing evidence.
