- RetentionPolicy (last/daily/weekly/monthly) and PruneService: forget
snapshots the policy drops, delete packs nothing uses and repack mostly
unused ones by copying encrypted blobs as-is; new packs are indexed
before old ones are removed
- a location lock keeps prune and backups apart; append-only locations
are never pruned (cleanup via the location's lifecycle rules)
- weekly prune from the background job; occ backup:prune [--dry-run],
backup:retention, backup:target:append-only
- tests: forget+prune frees space and the remaining snapshot restores
identically, repack of mixed packs, dry-run preview, retention buckets
- detect files changing during reading or between resumable steps and
re-read them (size/mtime/ctime/inode), spike F overwrites mid-run
- drop pending blob ids when a pack or index upload fails
- dump and restore PostgreSQL sequence state exactly, bound parameters,
validated catalog names; spike C checks all sequences exactly
- keep invalid UTF-8 byte-exact (tagged base64)
- refuse large tables without a primary key
- StorageBackend: check write/flush/close results, validate base path
- user_migration import/export: root paths, intermediate folders,
partial writes, read errors
- spikes: never touch an existing account, own fixtures, 512M note
ExternalStorageFactory builds storages with files_external's own
backends and auth mechanisms from an unsaved StorageConfig (as its
ConfigAdapter does), and StorageBackend adapts any IStorage to IBackend
(writeStream, seekable range reads, temp name + rename except on S3).
IBackend::put() now owns and always closes the stream, because
files_external's S3 writeStream closes it.
Spike D (NC34): S3 (SeaweedFS) and SFTP: 120 MiB backup ~6s, unchanged
run uploads nothing, restore bit-identical, no files_external mount
created, no temp files (max 12 KiB in /tmp). Works with files_external
disabled when its classes are loaded. Backup peak memory 85-89 MiB on
these targets (to investigate).
Content-addressed repository on an IBackend (local implementation):
4 MiB blobs, deflate when it helps, each blob encrypted with its id as
associated data, ~32 MiB packs with an encrypted header, one index file
per pack, snapshots as encrypted JSON lines written last.
Spike B: 390 MiB tree, peak 54 MiB; unchanged run reads nothing; a 1 MiB
change in a 300 MiB file uploads one blob; full and partial restore are
bit-identical; tampering is detected.
