A metric registered with learn_normal() gets, for every resource reporting
it, a usual hold (the 90th percentile across past days of each hour's p95)
and a usual peak for each slot:
- an hour of the day once 5 days of history exist;
- an hour of the week once history reaches back 3 weeks, so weekly jobs are
learned too.
Each slot takes in the hours either side, so a job that runs a little late
stays normal. One SQL statement relearns everything hourly into
metric_norms, from the rollup plus the raw window not rolled up yet;
norms_at() reads the slot a moment falls in. Nothing is registered yet:
Traefik (#5741) and hosts (#5742) opt in.

plugin_metrics_hourly gains value_p95 beside value_avg and value_max. A
two-minute backup spike raises the hour's peak and leaves its p95 low; an
hour spent at that level raises both. Learned normals (milestone 513) need
that difference to call a recurring spike usual without calling the same
level held at another hour usual too. Hours rolled up before this keep a
NULL p95 and read as their average.

The scraper folded traefik_service_requests_total{code} into two shares and
dropped the code, so a problem couldn't say whether it was scanners (404), a
login wall (401/403) or the app down (502/503/504). Each scrape now stores the
responses per router and code that occurred (traefik_status_codes, migration
traefik_006), pruned with the router metrics and left out of backups (System
180 ruling: Traefik history is not backed up). A problem card lists its codes
over the last 15 minutes, most first, or says none occurred, or that codes
aren't recorded yet.
A counter series new since the previous scrape now counts from 0 instead of
being skipped: Traefik creates a router's 502 series at its first 502, so a
first burst of 5xx read as 0% until it happened again.

Prometheus gains a "Widget templates" tab beside Targets. It lists the
built-in templates and an admin's own, any that no longer pass the checker
first. A template opens as its YAML beside a live preview drawn over a
chosen target exactly as the dashboard widget draws it (routes.draw, now
shared by both). An admin writes or pastes a new one, reads a .yaml upload
into the editor to look over, duplicates any template under a free name,
edits and deletes their own; anyone can export the YAML. Built-in
templates are read-only.
Custom templates are rows in prometheus_widget_templates (migration
prometheus_002_templates), kept in backups, keyed "custom:<id>" so a
rename keeps its widgets. Saving needs a template that passes the checker
and a name no other template has. Create, update and delete are audited
and link to the template.

#5691 "Generic Prometheus dashboard widget: pick a target and a template",
step 3 of milestone 508 "Prometheus widget templates".
- /plugins/prometheus/widget draws one target with one template in widget
shape: the verdict (led by "isn't answering" when the target is down),
then each block with problems first, figures beside a share bar or the
last 24h of bars, and the healthy rest folding to "+N more healthy" past
six. A missing target or template, or one that no longer checks, says so.
- library.py: bundled templates from plugins/prometheus/widgets/*.yaml,
the picker's target and template lists, and the default title.
- widgets/fabled_archives.yaml: the first bundled template, against the
series Archives reports (refined in #5693).
- Dashboard: a widget setting may take `options_from` (read when the picker
opens) with an `empty` sentence; `default_title`; a Details link may name
settings ("/plugins/prometheus/targets/{target}"). Prometheus is grouped
with the integrations.

#5689 "Prometheus target page: fold state sets, show epoch times, size
bytes", step 1 of milestone 508 "Prometheus widget templates".
- A state set (name ending in _state, a state label, every series 0 or 1;
or the OpenMetrics form, the label named after the metric) reads as one
row per thing it describes, naming the current state, the others on
hover. fabledarchives_jobs{state} is a count and stays as it is.
- label_pairs / state_label / fold_states in service.py, for the widget
templates to reuse.
- After a good scrape, series it no longer has lose their newest value
(forget_gone): Archives' old build_info row read as current beside the
new one. History stays; a failed scrape forgets nothing; alert rules keep
their own last-sample time.
- Epoch times and _bytes sizes were already read by shown_value /
metric_value.

- The audit-wording guard now reads both branches of a conditional action
("backup.made" if ok else "backup.failed"), and its self-test covers that.
- The Backups save test no longer asserts the session's tz, which sign-in
state sets, not the test.
- The restore integration test uses the app's own metadata. all_metadata
without plugin dirs imports the `plugins` package as the tests do; loading
by path under the loader's names is only for `steward restore`. Loading by
path in the shared test process had mapped traefik and unifi tables a
second time for later tests.

#5673 "S3 client and the backup job: settings, schedule, history, metrics":
- steward/backup/s3.py: SigV4 over httpx, path-style; put and list only
(an append-only key is enough; retention is the bucket's). Signing is held
to AWS's published examples.
- steward/backup/job.py: a 15-minute tick. The daily backup goes at the hour
chosen on the reader's clock; a missed day is made up, and a failure is
retried an hour later. History of the last 30 runs, audit
(backup.made / backup.failed), and backup_age_secs / backup_bytes under
"Steward itself", resource backup, for alert rules.
- Settings → Backups: verdict first, then the bucket (secret sealed; a
blank box keeps it), the schedule, Test the bucket, Back up now, and the
recent runs.
#5675 "Docs: backing up to Archives, and restoring": docs/core/backups.md.
Also: the audit page now words the Prometheus target actions from #5668,
which showed as codes, and a guard fails on any logged action without
wording.

The backup file (#5672 "Backup file: pg_dump of config + audit + alert
history, the secret key and a manifest"): steward-<UTC>.tar holding a
pg_dump --format=custom with metrics', check results' and Docker/Traefik/
UniFi rows left out, the secret key, and a manifest. Every table is named
KEPT or EXCLUDED in steward/backup/contents.py, and a guard test fails on a
new one. The image gains postgresql-client-17 (approved, System 180).
The restore (#5674 "Restore: `steward restore` and a CI test that a dump
brings Steward back"): pg_restore in its three sections. Between data and
constraints, a kept row pointing at a left-out row gets what its foreign
key's ON DELETE says (alert_events.ansible_run_id is cleared). It refuses
a non-empty database unless --wipe, and puts the backup's key in
/data/secret.key. Migrations run on Steward's next start.
`steward` stays the server command: it is now a click group that serves
when given no subcommand.
The publish smoke step backs up the booted image's database, restores it
into a second one, checks a marker setting came back and plugin_metrics
is empty, and starts Steward on it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The UniFi password sat in plugin.unifi in plain text: SECRET_KEYS covers
whole settings, and a plugin's settings are one dict. Saving the plugin's
settings page also wiped it, since the password box is never filled back
in and its blank value was stored.
- A plugin field whose name holds password, secret or token is a
credential (is_plugin_secret). set_setting seals it inside the dict,
every read opens it, startup seals any plaintext left from before, and
the undecryptable-secrets banner names it as plugin.<name>.<field>.
- The settings page uses the same test for its password boxes, and a blank
box keeps the saved value.

- tests/test_breadcrumbs.py: the Prometheus target list is its section's
own top page, like SNMP's, so it carries no trail.
- The integration test's exposition has label braces, which str.format read
as fields: the fake scrape raised, the target was recorded down and no
series landed. It substitutes the counter with replace() now.
- docs/plugins/prometheus.md: adding a target, filtering, how series are
named and stored, alerting, and the Fabled Archives recipe.

A bundled prometheus plugin, on by default like the other protocol plugins.
Targets are rows edited on its page: address, bearer token (encrypted),
interval, keep/leave-out name patterns and a series cap. Steward does the
filtering; the endpoint serves everything (Archives' ruling).
- A 5 s tick scrapes due targets at once, each within a 30 s deadline, and
writes the outcome to its row and its series through record_metrics, so
alert rules can watch any of them.
- Gauges are stored as they are; counters (and a histogram's or summary's
_sum/_count) as <name>_per_sec rates from the second scrape. Buckets and
quantiles are skipped. A labelled series is stored under
"<target>:k=v,…". Each target also records is_up, scrape_ms, series_kept
and series_capped.
- Pages: targets not answering first, with why; a target's series grouped
by metric with their newest values; a chart per series; the editor with
Test, which scrapes once and says what would be stored.
- The counter-to-rate keeper moves to steward/core/counter_rates.py; SNMP's
RateKeeper now scales its rate on top of it.
- metric_value reads Prometheus's _seconds as a span and _per_sec as a rate.
- The catalog guard treats an empty list as a dynamic source (snmp,
prometheus), as the rule form does.

The Alerts widget (/alerts/widget) is shaped like every widget: a verdict
("2 firing, 1 silent." / "Nothing firing: all 12 rules are quiet."), then
what is firing or silent with its reading now, what the rule fires on and
since when, then what someone acknowledged and who; a line when alert
email failed in the last 7 days or is retrying (outbox.alert_trouble),
linking admins to Settings -> System; the quiet rules counted, a covering
rule once. It sits beside the Overview in the recommended layout (6x4
each).
The Overview's "+N more" line pointed at the removed /status/; alerts now
link to /alerts/ and monitors to /monitors/.

#5509 "Delivery you can see: each alert's email state in history, and
outgoing email on Settings -> System" (milestone 501).
- Alerts -> History: an alert's email reads from the outbox (#5506):
"gathering" with when it sends, "sending", "retrying" with the attempt,
next try and the server's last answer, "sent", or "failed" naming each
reader it didn't reach and why (outbox.delivery / email_states). Events
from before the outbox keep what they recorded. The Notified column
shows once an alert has a queued email.
- Settings -> System gets "Outgoing email": every email of the last 7
days not yet sent, failures first, then the longest retrying, with
recipient, kind, state and last error, and a count of what was sent.
Failures and anything still retrying after 5 minutes lead the page's
verdict (outbox.outgoing).
- get_alert_history (MCP) adds `email`: the same delivery state.

Run 8942 failed this test alone (118 passed): it read the row back in a
second asyncio.run, and the app's pooled connection belonged to the
first, closed loop. The behaviour held ("The alerts this email carried
were deleted"); the settled row is now read from attempt's own result.

#5508 "Every other email through the outbox: weekly report, invites,
password resets, and the test buttons" (milestone 501).
- outbox.send_each queues one email per reader (claimed, so the sender
doesn't take it too) and tries them at once, for a page that answers
with what happened; outbox.said words the result. attempt takes a cfg
for a test of the form's unsaved settings and returns the settled rows.
- Weekly report (scheduled and Send now) and invites: queued, tried at
once; one the server couldn't take yet is retried for an hour. An invite
that didn't go shows its link with the reason, as before.
- Password reset: queued in the reset link's own transaction; the sender
delivers it on its next tick.
- Settings -> Notifications test email and a rule's Send test: queued and
recorded with retry=False, tried once (System 156 ruling).
- Removed mail.send, notifications._send_email and _smtp_send_sync;
dispatch_notifications is webhook only. A guard asserts only the outbox
(and smtp_open itself) opens an SMTP connection, with a self-test.
Also fixes run 8941 (#5507's integration test): its Also-send-to
addresses were "@test", which is_real_address rightly drops; they are
example.com now.

#5507 "Alert emails through the outbox, gathered for 2 minutes"
(milestone 501). Replaces the in-memory core/alert_burst.py.
- outbox.hold_alert: an alert joins each recipient's held alert email, or
opens one due 2 minutes later (System 156 ruling). A Postgres advisory
lock keeps two alerts at once from opening two windows for one reader.
- email_outbox_events.alert_json (migration 0043) keeps the alert as it
fired, so the email written when the window closes says what it said.
- write_held writes it then, in the reader's zone: the usual alert email
for one alert, the list for several (outbox.alert_words).
- after_settle records on each AlertEvent, once every email carrying it
has settled: email_sent, or email_error naming each reader it didn't
reach and the server's reason.
- A held email survives a restart and goes out when its window closes.
- A refusal of a message's one recipient no longer repeats the address.

#5506 "Email outbox: a table of outgoing email and a sender that retries
until accepted, for up to an hour" (milestone 501).
- email_outbox (migration 0042) holds each message per recipient, its
words, its state (held / pending / sending / sent / failed), attempts and
the server's last answer. email_outbox_events links alert events for
#5507.
- core/outbox.py: enqueue; a sender task every 15 s claims what is due
(SKIP LOCKED, stale claims released), sends the batch over one
connection with no session held, and settles each row:
- accepted -> sent;
- a 5xx refusal -> failed at once with the server's words;
- no connection, a timeout, a 4xx -> retried after 30 s, 1, 2, 5, 10,
15 min, the last try at the hour, then failed;
- a test (retry=False) settles on its first answer.
It runs on startup, so a row left by a restart goes out at boot.
- notifications.smtp_open is the one place a connection is opened.
- mail.message takes the html part as optional.
- cleanup ages email_outbox rows on the data window.
Senders move onto it in #5507 and #5508.

#5469 "Settings → System: table sizes and what the last cleanup removed".
- Storage: each table's size on disk (pg_total_relation_size, indexes and TOAST
included) and Postgres's row estimate (reltuples), largest first, the 15
largest by name and the rest summed, under the database's total size. Read
from the catalog only, never by counting rows.
- Last cleanup: when it ran, how long it took, and what each pass removed (each
aged table, run log files, the metric and Docker rollups, the log ring), or
"Nothing was past its window". run_cleanup now returns that summary and keeps
it as the cleanup.last_run setting, as reports.last_sent_at does; cleanup_secs
(#5467) is recorded from the same figure.
- A hint links to where each retention window is set.

#5468 "Log search by service name: searching "steward_app" refuses because every

search_container_logs(container="steward_app") was refused, because no container
carries the service's own name and five task containers partly matched. Now a
service's name reaches every task container Steward holds anything for, live and
removed (docker_svc.service_containers, as the service page's logs already do),
so one search spans deploys. Each match carries the slot and task_id that wrote
it, and the reply names the service and how many tasks were searched. A container
named exactly what was asked still takes precedence. A miss that partly matches
task containers now names their services.

#5490 "A day of one metric reads fast even cold". A cold 24 h series read
measured 18.3 s against 63 ms warm (#5485): every sample's row sat on its own
heap page. ix_plugin_metrics_series_value carries `value` (INCLUDE), so the
read is an index-only scan; it replaces the plain series index from 0023.
It is built once, with CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY from a task started after the
app is serving, never in a migration, so the boot isn't held while it builds
over the live table (#5220) and ingest and pages carry on. A build cut short
by a restart leaves an INVALID index; the next boot drops and rebuilds it.
Later boots find it present and only check. Postgres keeps it current on each
insert, as it did the index it replaces.

- The group picker links to Ansible > Inventory to make a group, in a new
tab, and re-reads the groups when the tab comes back into view.
- Picking a host or part swaps the pickers alone (/alerts/api/rule_target);
picking a metric swaps the preview (/alerts/api/metric_preview).
- A rule's own resource and metric stay on offer after they go quiet.

a TEST alert for that rule now, by email to everyone who gets alerts and by
webhook. The alert carries the rule's name and condition, at the latest
reading of what it watches; a rule covering hosts uses its first host. The
result for each channel shows under the button, or "Nothing is set up to
send to". Nothing fires, no event is written, and the test is audited as
alert_rule.tested. An alert with no reading now says "has no reading yet"

#5464 "Group rules: one rule covers every host, or every host in a group",
step 2 of milestone 499 "Alerts you can trust". Each rule named one host, so
the live instance carried six rules for three hosts, and a new host had no
agent-offline or disk alert until someone copied them.
- alert_rules.covers / cover_group / parent_id (migration 0041). A rule on
host_agent may cover "all_hosts" or a "group" (an inventory group: the
Hosts ruling, #5294). A covering rule has no state; Steward keeps one
ordinary child rule per covered host, named "<rule>: <host>", so each
host's alert keeps its own state, history and acknowledgement.
- alerts.service.reconcile_children: a covered host that has reported in
the last 7 days gets a child; a host no longer covered loses its child;
children take the parent's condition, checks, notify setting, action and
on/off. Run on save and each minute (alert_reconcile).
- A child is changed through its parent: edit, toggle and delete of a child
are refused (409 / PartOfCoveringRule); its edit page opens the parent.
- Rule form: a Covers choice for host sources, with the group picker; fixed
once the rule exists. Rules list: a covering rule reads "every host in
swarm · 3 hosts" with its hosts' rules nested under it, each opening its
history. The history picker and the rule count leave covering rules out.
- MCP: create_alert_rule takes covers/group; update_alert_rule takes group

- alert_events.actor_id (migration 0040): the person behind a transition.
- Acknowledging writes a firing → acknowledged event by the acknowledger.
- A rule edit, disable or enable that resets an alert carries its actor
(web and MCP alike).
- The history page notes "acknowledged by X" and "rule disabled by X"; MCP
get_alert_history returns `by`.
- One usernames() helper in alerts.service, used by the active list, the
history page and the MCP tools.
- docs/core/alerting.md: the state diagram no longer shows an acknowledged
alert re-firing, and says what an event records.

Run now set last_run_at to the click, and a schedule's next turn counts
from last_run_at, so a manual run of the nightly prune at 14:00 moved
every later run to 14:00. Operator ruling: "run now shouldn't change the
schedule it should just run the playbook and leave the schedule as it
was."
Run now no longer touches last_run_at. It still records the run as
last_run_id, so the list shows it and a firing during it is skipped.

check_interval_s was `m.check_interval_seconds or None`, so a monitor

When a silent series' sample also moved the rule (fired, resolved), the
resume and the transition were two events: the resume from the
pre-evaluation state at ingest time, the transition at the sample's
time. Ties sort by a random id, and the resume's "→ inactive" landed
after "→ firing", so the history read "silent, firing, back to normal"
at once and the episode closed while the alert was firing.
_track_samples now only clears the mark and returns its note; the first
sample's evaluation records one event from no_data to wherever that
sample took the rule ("firing" or "resolved" notification), or back to
the state it was in ("data_resumed", still only when notify_no_data).
Also fixes the #5441 integration test: its rule needs a recorded
resource to target (CI 8878).

After Steward or its database was down, every agent's age and every
series' last sample were old, so all agent-offline rules fired and all
rules went no-data at once, clearing a minute later. With per-account
alert email that would have mailed everyone a dozen notices per restart.
A periodic job now ticks a Watch (steward/core/watch.py) once it has
reached the database; the Watch says since when runs have been unbroken
(process start, or the end of a gap over 120 s). seconds_since_seen and
the no-data sweep count silence from no earlier than that, so a source
must stay quiet while Steward is watching before it counts as silent.

- Sign-in page: "Forgot your password?" while a mail server is set.
- /forgot takes a username or email and answers the same either way; only
an active local account with a real address gets mail. Requests count
per address on their own throttle, so they never lock out sign-in.
- password_resets (migration 0039): a one-time key, stored as its sha256,

"Passwords: change your own, and reset it by email". A Password section
in the page's one form, for local accounts: current, new, again. Blank
keeps the password; a new one signs out every other browser
(sessions_since) and keeps this one. A wrong current password counts
toward the login throttle. Audited as account.password_changed.

#5207 "UniFi Overview tab: func.strftime is SQLite-only": the WAN and
client sparklines bucketed with strftime('%s'), which Postgres lacks, so
/plugins/unifi/rows failed. Traefik's date_bin bucket moves to
core/time_range.time_bucket and both plugins use it. Devices list offline
and failing first, and a state other than online is named (Upgrading,
Adopting, Heartbeat missed...) instead of drawn as Down.

#5427 "A password reset doesn't end the sessions already signed in with
the old password": users.sessions_since (migration 0038) is set on reset;
refresh_session_user ends a session whose login_at is earlier. An admin
resetting their own password carries on signed in.

The operator's ask: an invite link sent by mail, the key in the URL, and
the new user choosing their own username, password and email.
- user_invites (migration 0037): the key's sha256 only, the address, the
role and days the admin chose, who sent it, used/revoked.
- core/invites: create (revokes an older open invite to the address),
renew (new key, new clock), find_pending, the four states, signup checks.
- /invite/<key>, outside sign-in and throttled like login: the invitee's
username, email (prefilled, theirs to change) and password; the account
takes the admin's role, the key is used up in the same transaction and
they are signed in. A bad key gets one plain message.
- Settings › Users: Invite by email (address, role, 1/7/30 days), sent from
the admin in their zone; without a mail server, or if sending fails, the
link is shown once to copy. Invites not yet used are listed with Resend
and Withdraw.
- Audit: user.invited, user.invite_resent, user.invite_revoked, user.joined.

Operator review of the Account page: two sections with two different
save buttons, one stuck to the next card and one beside a squeezed hint.
- Account: time zone and Email are one form; POST /account/ saves both,
nothing unless all of it is valid. /account/email is gone.
- Users › account: Name and Email are one form; the rename route also
saves the email switches. /settings/users/<id>/email is gone.
- The Email section is a plain section now (email_section); its hint sits
under the switches, names the zone as the picker does, and links
Notifications only for an admin.
- apply_email_form leaves a switch the form doesn't carry as it is.

Reading the settings autobegins the session's transaction, so the
nested db.begin() that saves the first admin's zone as smtp.tz raised
InvalidRequestError and every visit 500'd until a zone was saved. The
integration test signed in without a zone, so that path never ran;
it now has a test of its own.

Milestone 495 "Email goes to each account, in its own time zone", on the
operator's ruling (System 156): notifications go to each user, times in
their zone, defaults on, toggled per user or per role.
- users.notify_alerts / notify_report (migration 0036): None follows the
role's default, notify.<kind>.<role> in settings, all on to start.
- mail.pick_recipients: active accounts that want the email and have an
address mail can reach (an SSO placeholder like name@oidc is skipped and
flagged), each in its own zone with no UTC beside it, then the Also send
to addresses in their chosen zone with UTC beside. One copy per address,
all over one SMTP connection.
- Alerts, the weekly report and the test email (to you, in your zone, plus
the typed addresses) send that way. The save-time smtp.tz capture is gone.
- Notifications: a role × email table of defaults, who each email reaches
and who can't be reached, and Also send to with its own zone, which starts
as the first admin's to open the page.
- Account page: your address and your two switches. Users: an Emailed
column, and an admin sets an account's switches on its page.
- The Alerts page counts the accounts it emails. zone_select macro and
formatting.zones_by_region shared by Account and Notifications.

#5336 "Users page: list accounts, change role, disable, reset a local
password, create a local user".
- Settings › Users (admin only, a Settings tab): every account with how it
signs in, its role, last sign-in (from the audit log) and working AI
tokens; disabled accounts last. A row opens the account.
- An account's page: rename (any account), role and password (local
accounts; an LDAP or single sign-on role comes from the provider at
every sign-in, and the page says so), disable or enable, and Delete
behind the confirm dialog.
- Refusals are said beside the control: nobody disables, demotes or
deletes themselves, the last active admin stays, and an account that
made alert rules, maintenance windows or playbook runs is disabled
rather than deleted (those records keep who made them).
- Add user: a local account with a role and a password of 8+ characters.
- Every change is audited as user.*, and the audit log names and links the
account.

#5335 "Emails Steward sends read as designed messages: an HTML alert email
and weekly report, with a plain-text twin".
- core/mail.py renders each email as multipart/alternative from
templates/email/: a table-and-inline-style HTML part and a plain-text
twin carrying the same facts. Colours are the design system's light
theme, resolved from theme.css; nothing is fetched when a mail opens.
- Alert email: state badge, a headline sentence ("Disk used on web01 is
94%."), rule, resource, reading, the condition in words, and the time in
the zone Notifications was saved in with UTC beside it; "View in
Steward" when Steward's address is set. Subject "[Steward] Firing: <rule>
— <resource> 94%". Alerts now carry their operator.
- Weekly report: monitors down, active alerts, the week's alert events,
uptime and busiest Traefik routers as small tables with links. Sent from
the configured From address; the "Generated … UTC" line and the stale
repo footer are gone.
- condition_text() states a condition from a rule's parts.

SNMP is on by default, so the loader has already mapped snmp_devices under
_steward_plugin_snmp; importing plugins.snmp.models defined the table twice
(integration lane, run 8788).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The operator, reviewing SNMP on #5214: "this system looks incomplete like
there's something missing from it". The one device shown was plugin.yaml's
example (core-switch 192.168.1.1, community public), polled every minute;
devices could only be defined by editing YAML in the image; a failed poll was
logged at DEBUG and stored nowhere, so the page said "waiting for the next
poll" forever; v3 ran as v2c; counters showed as lifetime totals.
- Devices are rows (snmp_devices, migration snmp_001): address, port,
v1/v2c community or a v3 user with auth/priv protocols and keys (secrets
encrypted), presets plus custom readings, an optional host binding, and
the newest poll's outcome. The YAML device list and its example are gone.
- The SNMP page adds, edits and deletes them (admin, audited, with
get_audit_entities so the audit log names and links a device). Readings
come from presets (system uptime, interface traffic by number, UPS-MIB,
Linux net-snmp) and custom "OID name [unit]" lines.
- One GET per device with every OID, devices polled at once. The outcome is
written to the row in words ("No reply from … within 5 s. Check the address
and port, that SNMP is on, and the community"), with readings it lacks.
v1's whole-request error drops that OID and asks again. SNMPv3 signs in
with USM (MD5/SHA-1/SHA-2, DES/3DES/AES).
- Test asks the unsaved form's device for its name, description, uptime and
interfaces by number. It is an admin's explicit action; every page reads
only stored rows (System 178's ruling).
- Each reading has a unit; a counter is stored as a per-second rate (bytes as
bit/s), a reset or wrap skipped. The page, widget and host panel say values
in units and why a device is silent; the device page draws a chart per
reading on a dated axis.
Tests: readings and presets, the form and its secrets, v3 checks, rates,
the poller against a stand-in pysnmp (one GET, v1 retry, timeout wording,
USM), the pages, and an integration test of the poll writing outcomes and
rates on Postgres.
