  • Research 030 measures what every machine holds (nothing is backed up anywhere) and weighs the options.
  • ADR 0214 (proposed): modules declare their data, a node-backup node seat composes them; nightly full logical dumps into one encrypted deduplicating repository per machine; 14 daily / 8 weekly / 6 monthly; stays on the machine (mistakes, not disasters); restores go beside the live data; failures reach the operator.
  • Issue 242 gains the scope.
  • Issue 238: exempting the operator is rejected; fix the logins at their source.

On accepting 0214, the to-be design and the build hand-off follow. records/index/cycle pass.

The operator scoped backups to mistakes, not disasters (issue 242). Issue 238: fix the failed logins
at their source instead of exempting the operator's address.
