From 66a5443f22ed3166ccb436d05f36dd43cac08d28 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Myron Blair Date: Sat, 4 Jul 2026 12:21:53 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Document Homebridge backup switch from MSP360 to Proxmox vzdump --- public_html/admin/downloads/INFRASTRUCTURE-REFERENCE.md | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/public_html/admin/downloads/INFRASTRUCTURE-REFERENCE.md b/public_html/admin/downloads/INFRASTRUCTURE-REFERENCE.md index cdbffd0..7b12f5c 100644 --- a/public_html/admin/downloads/INFRASTRUCTURE-REFERENCE.md +++ b/public_html/admin/downloads/INFRASTRUCTURE-REFERENCE.md @@ -674,7 +674,8 @@ fs_cli -x "reloadacl" # reload ACL (safe) - **Schedule:** daily `0 6 * * *` on PVE1 (`>> /var/log/backup-status-collect.log`) - **Dashboard card:** `web.orbishosting.com` "BACKUP STATUS" card (`index.html`) fetches `/downloads/backup-status.json` client-side (`loadBackupStatus()`), color-codes dots by `result` (green=Success, yellow=Warning, red=Fail, cyan=Running, gray=unknown) - **JSON schema:** `{"updated": "", "hosts": [{"name","ip","state","result"}, ...]}` -- **Known state (2026-07-03):** 5/6 hosts report `Warning`, Homebridge reports `Fail` — plan-level result, not investigated further; worth checking each host's MSP360 GUI/log for root cause if backups need to be trusted for restore +- **Homebridge (2026-07-04): dropped MSP360 entirely.** After extensive troubleshooting (RAM starvation, a bug where its account scanned every other host's shared backup data, missing bind-mount depths, CIFS tuning, a full plan recreation) Homebridge's MSP360 agent kept failing with a false "storage drive not mounted" error at a consistent ~60-75s mark, root cause never conclusively identified (survived every environmental fix, looked like an app-level bug tied to any custom/non-default account path). Since Homebridge (VM 118) was already being backed up successfully every night by the cluster-wide Proxmox vzdump job (`backup-aa6b1890-23c0`, all VMs, 21:00 daily, keep-last=3, to `SynologyProx` storage), MSP360 was stopped/disabled on Homebridge (`systemctl disable msp360-backup.service msp360-backupWA.service`) and removed from the dashboard collector's per-host MSP360 check. The collector now reads Homebridge's status directly from `/mnt/pve/SynologyProx/dump/vzdump-qemu-118-*.vma.zst` on PVE1 instead of querying an in-guest agent. +- **Known state (2026-07-04):** 4/5 remaining MSP360 hosts report `Warning`, NovaCPX reports `Fail` — plan-level result, not investigated further; worth checking each host's MSP360 GUI/log for root cause if backups need to be trusted for restore. Homebridge reports `Success` via Proxmox. ---
