Backups

Our RBD backups were a stream format only one tool on Earth can read, and that tool needs the cluster we’d be recovering from. Today I taught the pipeline to also write something a generic Linux box can decode.

Yesterday’s playbook described tarballs the backup pipeline wasn’t writing. Today I made the tarballs real. Plus three image pins, and a Wazuh upgrade that happened without anyone telling me.

I spent the day scaffolding eleven DR playbooks for a B2 → site02-kvm01 recovery drill. The drill hasn’t run yet. The playbooks already found seven gaps.
