Three times a diagnostic has not run because the thing before it threw: `must`
on a command that exits non-zero, and then a query that hung long enough to
take the harness's own timeout with it — which arrives as an error with no
evidence attached rather than as a failed assertion.
A thirty-second test costs fifteen minutes to re-run, so the evidence has to be
gathered whichever way it fails. One helper, used by every assertion here, and
the query is bounded on the machine rather than by the harness: a query that
hangs is a result, not an accident.
These machines run systemd-resolved, so resolv-conf would fight it over the
file. Both claim the-resolver-configuration so that assigning the wrong one is
refused rather than fought over — and the test was picking the wrong one.
dnsmasq cannot bind 127.0.0.54 and the module's own comment claims that address
is free. Which of those is wrong is the question, and naming the holder answers
it — assuming would be issue 012's mistake, where two things changed and the
plausible one was blamed.
`systemctl is-active` exits non-zero for a unit that failed, so `must` threw
before the assertion carrying every diagnostic — and the run said only
"failed". The journal, the config, what the mesh wrote and resolv.conf are all
things the next run should not have to be re-run to see.
Through the path an application actually takes — nsswitch, files, then DNS —
because the resolv.conf module is half of what is being tested and only that
path goes through it. Asking a server directly would prove less.
Both machines resolve, from their own copy: a mesh where one machine answers
for all of them stops resolving when that machine does, which is the
arrangement this design refuses everywhere else.
The manifests are read from mesh-control's examples rather than written here,
so what is proven is what ships. And dnsmasq joins the base image, read back
through --version like the others: a machine that cannot answer names applies
the resolver data, reports success, and resolves nothing.
mesh-resolver requires name resolution, which requires the network — so
unassigning the domain module alone leaves the machine on the network, pulled
back by its own requirement. The mesh was right and the test was wrong.
Which is the requirement graph doing its job: a module cannot quietly lose
something it depends on because somebody removed the thing that first brought
it in.
The mesh's half: the data is right, complete on every machine, and agrees with
the hosts file — two accounts of where a machine is, disagreeing, would be
worse than either alone, and this is the one place they could drift because
they are generated separately.
And it follows the machines: a node that leaves the private network stops being
answered for, because a wildcard pointing at nothing resolves and then hangs,
where an unresolvable name fails at once and says which name it was.
The mesh gives its names to the containers it declares. This one is started by
the test with `docker run` — nothing declared it, so nothing configured it, and
removing the workaround here was claiming a reach the change does not have.
The boundary is the right one: a container somebody runs by hand is not the
mesh's to configure. Reaching into every container on a machine, declared or
not, is what a resolver in resolv.conf would be for — and that remains the
case for wanting one.
The proof that names work inside containers is its own test, against a
container the mesh declared, and it passes.
The rotation test resolved the address on the machine and passed it in, because
the name failed inside the container. That workaround is gone, and a test that
checks the name from inside a container is added — on the machine it has always
worked, which is what made this easy to miss.
`networking` is the requirement a module offers; `mesh-wireguard` is the
module, and what caused a rule is the module itself. The rule set was right and
the assertion was looking for the wrong name.
The failure guarded against is not subtle and is very hard to recover from: a
rule set that closes the hub's own port takes the private network down, and the
mesh's way of fixing anything is to send a declaration over it.
So the assertion that matters is not the rule file — it is that a declaration
still reaches the other machine afterwards, and that the other machine still
reaches the hub. A rule file that looks right and a mesh that has stopped are
exactly what this is for.
A file in a missing directory is not impossible: the host creates the parents,
which is correct and meant the first version of this test broke nothing at all
— and then reported that the board could not name a failure that never
happened. A unit that does not exist fails immediately and in the host's own
words, which is also what the board is being asked to show.
A machine is given a declaration it cannot apply, and the board names it,
says 'failed' rather than 'error', and shows the host's own words about what it
could not do — a board that said only 'failed' would send a person to ask the
thing they opened the board to avoid asking.
And it agrees with the command, from the same read: two answers to 'which
machine is broken' would be worse than either alone. Reading it changes
nothing.
This assertion passed twice and failed once on nothing but timing, which is the
worst kind of green: it says the mechanism works when what it measured was the
clock.
`status` cannot stand in for the wait either. A machine that has not applied
yet is not a machine that failed — "not yet" and "never" look identical there,
and only one of them is worth failing over. So it waits for the thing itself,
and says on failure that the machine did apply, which is what separates "the
mesh still thinks this contributes" from "nothing was sent".
The mesh withdrawing a route and the machine acting on it are different things,
and a test that reads the file without checking the second reports the first
wrongly whenever the machine is behind for any unrelated reason. On failure it
now also prints what the mesh would send now, which is what separates 'the mesh
still thinks this contributes' from 'the machine never applied'.
A container does not inherit its host's /etc/hosts, so a name the mesh wrote
there resolves for the machine and not for anything it runs. It fails as "could
not translate host name", which reads like a mesh that never wrote the name —
so the address is resolved on the machine and the container is given that.
And `grep -c` prints 0 and exits non-zero when it finds nothing, so the obvious
`|| echo 0` prints a second one and the count is never what it looks like. The
question was always whether, not how many.
The rotation check now also reports what psql said, not only what the
provisioner said: the failure was on the client side and the diagnostics were
all from the server.
Two setup faults, each of which read as the mesh failing.
The provisioner names a role after the machine and a database after what the
module asked for. The rotation test logged in as the module's name into the
wrong database, so a provisioner that had done its job exactly looked like one
that had not.
And the licence test assigned before recording any licence, so the refusal it
got was "nothing provides model-access" — correct, and a different refusal from
the one being tested. Assigning is also the earliest point a person meets it,
so that is where it is now checked.
Commit, build, catalogue, push — and the machine ends up running what the
source says. With the two halves that make the answer trustworthy: it is still
running the old one until it is told, because the mesh changing its mind is not
a machine acting on it; and it stops being reported as behind once it has
caught up, because a status that says "behind" for ever is one nobody reads.
Refused until somebody says which, with both candidates and the command named.
Refused again while it has no key. Then the key is given on standard input, the
public half arrives saying it came from a record rather than a machine, the key
itself arrives readable only by that machine — and it is nowhere in the control
plane's own database, nor in what crossed the broker.
And the rotation test asked for grants without receives, so the provisioner
found a directory of unexplained secrets and said nothing had been granted:
true, and indistinguishable from a credential never delivered.
The request goes to the name, across the private network, and returns the
workload's own answer. Then the module is unassigned and the same request must
stop working — a stale public name pointing at nothing fails more visibly than
a stale grant.
The workload declares its port as well as its route, because they are different
questions and the earlier test leaves this machine filtering: a module that
asked for a route and not for the port would be unreachable by the proxy it
just asked for.
Two ends holding a matching string proves they agree, not that either is right.
So the check is three logins over the private network from the consumer's own
machine: the delivered credential works, the rotated one works, and the one
that was rotated away does not. Without the last, the test passes against a
provider that added a password without replacing one.
Not over loopback: pg_hba trusts anything there, and a deliberately wrong
password returned a row for a whole afternoon once.
It runs in a container, so a path like /root exists for the machine and not for
it. The first build in this test works because the hand-started builder runs on
the host; the second is done by the module, and asked it to clone a path it has
no way to reach.
A real module is cloned from the forge over a URL. The lab has no forge, so the
repository goes in the directory the module already mounts — the same fact
wearing different clothes.
The distribution's nftables.service is Type=oneshot with no RemainAfterExit: it
loads the rules and goes inactive. A host asked for a service that is "running"
then reports, quite correctly, that it is stopped — every packet filtered as
declared, and the machine marked as not doing what it was told.
There is no state in the vocabulary for "ran and exited having done its job",
so a module that needs one brings a unit that stays. That is also the right
shape: how a machine enforces rules is a fact about the machine, and the mesh
has no business depending on what a distribution happens to package.
And when the builder's build times out, dump the builder's own account of
itself. "Nothing consumed the queue" names no cause and is the same sentence
whether the credential was refused, the queue was never declared, or the
process died three seconds in.
Both assertions were wrong and the mesh was right, which the output made
plain: the rule set named its source, dropped by default, restricted the
declared port and omitted the undeclared one.
"From the mesh" resolves to the addresses on the private network — the whole
point — and the assertion was looking for the segment the two machines happen
to share. So the test now reaches the same machine both ways, and asserts the
declared port answers over the private network and does NOT answer off it.
A test with only one path could not tell "open to the mesh" from "open".
And the fingerprint is delivered with a sha256: prefix, which the regex did not
allow.
A builder that cannot connect sits there, and every outward sign — container
up, credential on disk — says it is working. The failure surfaced five minutes
later as nothing consuming the build queue, which names no cause at all.
Two faults in one line of the harness, and the second is the serious one.
Every command was wrapped as `<cmd> 2>&1; echo "__exit=$?"` on a single line,
so any command containing a heredoc broke: the terminator line became
`MARKER 2>&1; echo ...`, matched nothing, and the heredoc swallowed the rest of
the script — the echo with it. `exec 2>&1` on its own first line fixes that: a
heredoc then terminates where it says it does.
And when the marker was gone, `Number("")` is 0, so the missing exit status
read as exit 0. A command whose output was swallowed reported that it worked,
which is the one answer a test harness must never give. It is now a failure,
with whatever was said returned so the reason is visible.
Found because the firewall test's listener is written with a heredoc and never
started, and the test failed on its own setup — which reads exactly like the
firewall working.
Two setup faults, each of which looked like the thing being tested failing.
The builder module was assigned without its artifact ever being built, so
nothing could start — and the build has to happen while the hand-started
builder is still alive. Same chicken-and-egg as the registry, resolved the same
way: the builder that exists builds the one that replaces it.
The firewall test's listeners were squeezed through three levels of shell
quoting and never started, so the test failed on its own setup — which reads
exactly like the firewall working.
Written and loaded are different things, and loaded and enforcing are different
again. The test opens two ports on a machine, declares one of them, and checks
from the other machine that the declared one answers and the undeclared one
does not — then removes the module and checks the port closes with nobody
editing a rule.
The base image gains nftables, read back through `nft --version` like the other
three: a machine that cannot load a rule set applies the mesh's filtering,
reports success and filters nothing, which is the exact fault the derivation
exists to remove.
Two earlier tests were asking for things that are not there. The lab's registry
drops tags when it stocks, so `registry:2` is not served and the mirror test
failed with "not found" — it now uses the pinned digest, which is what a
declaration carries anyway.
went
`exec` waited two minutes always. A build, or anything that waits on
another machine, needs longer — and a caller that cannot say so has to
split the work to fit, which is a test shaped by its harness rather than
by what it is testing.
The scenario also places a build machine when one is given, so anything
in it can ask the mesh to build something. Nothing else here would start
one.
And the mesh-runs-its-own-artifact-store test is not here. It needs a
fourth image so the module has a registry to mirror, and that is caught
behind 04-ISSUES/012 — left as a note saying where it went and why,
rather than silently deleted, because what it asserted is worth
asserting.
Broken with a package that does not exist, so the failure is real and
fixable. The mesh reports it failed; the resources that could be applied
were, because one broken thing no longer blocks the rest; `push --behind`
names that machine and not the one that is fine; the module is corrected;
and the machine recovers with nobody naming it.
And with nothing behind, it says so rather than doing nothing quietly.
Two properties the design claims and neither had been run.
A push to a machine that is switched off must not be lost — a machine is
disconnected as an ordinary situation, not an exception. The queue is
durable and the message persistent, which ought to be enough, but a lost
declaration is silent and "ought to be" is not a property. It waits: the
machine's host is stopped, the push happens, nothing changes on the
machine, and when it listens again it applies what it missed with no
second push and nobody saying anything.
Getting there found a real fault, now fixed in mesh-host and recorded as
04-ISSUES/011: the machine stopped at the first failing resource, so one
broken module blocked every module after it for ever. The evidence was
the broker's queues being EMPTY — the declaration had been delivered and
read.
And removal: two modules assigned, one unassigned, and the machine loses
exactly that one's file while keeping the other's — and keeps the store,
broker and control plane it raised from its own bundle, which the mesh
never declared and must never remove.
Two of my own traps recorded in the test, because both cost real time:
`pkill -f` matches the shell running it, which kills the connection
carrying the command and hangs the caller for ever; and a test that
depends on state another test left behind fails for a reason that has
nothing to do with what it claims.
The status path was demonstrated with inserted rows, which proves the
query and not the path. This sends a real machine something it will
genuinely fail at — a package that does not exist — and asks the mesh
afterwards.
A failure of the ordinary kind: the host tries, the package manager says
no, some of the declaration is applied and some is not. That is the
situation `status` exists to distinguish from a machine that refused
everything, and the test asserts the distinction survives the whole way:
the machine is listed as failed rather than refused, the failing resource
is named in the host's own words, and the machine that did as it was told
is not implicated.
The chain this closes: a repository exists, the mesh asks for it, a build
machine takes the work, publishes what it made, and the catalogue then
says what the module is, which commit it came from, and — after the
source moves — that it is behind.
Three assertions, against a real broker and registry, because what is
under test is four processes agreeing over a wire:
- the mesh asks, a machine builds, and the artifact is really in the
registry at the digest the manifest names
- a build that cannot succeed says why and records nothing. A failure
that is silent is indistinguishable from a builder that is not running
- the source moving makes the catalogue say "behind", and rebuilding
catches it up
git is now in the base image, with the same reasoning as docker and
wireguard-tools: a machine that builds modules clones them, and a sealed
scenario cannot install anything. Read back from `git --version` rather
than from the package manager — an installed package is not a
capability, and a build machine whose clone fails does so three minutes
into a scenario with the failure reported as a build problem rather than
a lab one.
Everything before this proved a part. This proves the parts meet, which
the project keeps saying cannot be checked any other way.
A bare machine applies the substrate bundle and becomes a mesh — store,
schemas, broker with a certificate it generated itself, control plane
serving. Both machines then join it with nothing but a token. A database
is declared on one and an application on the other, and after a push:
- both ends hold the SAME password, or nothing could authenticate
- it is mode 0600 on the machine that uses it
- it appears in neither machine's stored declaration, neither machine's
reported state, nor the control plane's database — so it was not
readable by the broker that carried it or the mesh that sent it
- the consumer is also told where its database is, by a name the mesh
wrote into that machine's hosts file
The bundle's image references are rewritten to the ones this scenario's
registry serves. A digest belongs to whatever registry serves it, so a
committed bundle names a registry that is not this one — rewriting is
what makes it applicable rather than a placeholder to tidy away.
Two faults found getting here, both fixed in mesh-host: `apply` could not
read a file the bundle could, and the token did not say what the mesh
calls the machine.
The mesh generates a password, seals it to the machine that must accept
it, and discards the plaintext — so it cannot tell PostgreSQL to start
accepting it. Something on that machine reads what the host wrote and
makes it true. Everything up to that step is proven elsewhere; this is
where a password either becomes a login or does not.
A scenario with one machine and a database, and six assertions: the
password works, running again reaches the same state and says nothing,
rotation makes the new one work and the old one stop, a departed consumer
loses its login, a role nobody here made is left alone, and a manifest
naming a credential that was never written is refused rather than
creating a login with no password.
Each was confirmed to fail — and only it to fail — with the behaviour
removed from the provisioner: only-creates breaks rotation, no-revoke
breaks revocation, revoking everything breaks the bystander role, and
ignoring a missing credential breaks the refusal.
Two faults in the test itself, both worth recording:
- it checked logins from inside the database's own container over
127.0.0.1, which PostgreSQL's default pg_hba trusts. No password was
ever verified. Demonstrated directly: over loopback a deliberately
wrong password still returns a row. Only the rotation assertion
noticed, because it is the one that requires a password to STOP
working — which is an argument for writing that assertion every time.
- the fix then read .NetworkSettings.IPAddress, which docker 29 no
longer populates. It templates to empty, psql falls back to a unix
socket that is not there, and every login looks impossible rather than
misconfigured.
A sealed scenario cannot install wireguard-tools any more than it can install a
container runtime, so a lab without them cannot test connectivity at all --
which is most of what the mesh does between machines. Installed and not
started: what a node runs is the mesh's decision, and a lab that brought the
interface up itself would be testing its own setup.
growing-mesh exists to be grown. The point is not the third machine, it is that
adding one changes every other node's peer list -- so each has to be told
again, or the newcomer is on a network nobody else can see.
The first raises everything from the bundle its host carries and joins the mesh
it made; the second has a host and nothing else, and a person carries it a
token. This is the first scenario where the mesh is a mesh -- everything before
it proved a machine could talk to a control plane on its own loopback, which
proves less than it looks.
'incus list' failed because this shell had no permission to reach the daemon,
incusOk returned null, and the caller wrote ?? "[]". So 'mesh-lab list'
printed 'no scenario instances standing' -- confidently, about a question it
had never managed to ask.
The comment on incusOk warns about exactly this, in those words: absence and
success made indistinguishable. Three of its own callers then did it. Two
listings and the live diagram, which would have drawn an empty scenario rather
than fail -- a picture that is confidently wrong, which is worse than none.
Anything enumerating what exists now goes through enumerate() and throws.
incusOk stays right where failure genuinely means no, like instanceExists,
and there is a test holding that line so this does not get over-corrected
until nothing can be asked at all.
Worth noting 'mesh-lab check' already diagnoses this precise cause, down to
'a session that predates it cannot see it'. The diagnosis existed; the
listing just never asked for it.
One machine with PostgreSQL in its registry, for developing the bootstrap.
Used to verify that a sealed machine can raise a store and a database from the
bundle its host carries.
Closes 04-ISSUES/009. A scenario declares `images:` by tag; the lab stocks a
registry on this workstation where there is a network, raises it inside the
scenario as scenery, and reports the references a declaration pins -- which are
the digests THIS registry assigned, and are not knowable until it is raised.
Verified in a sealed machine, confirmed by ping to have no route out: package,
service including boot state, a container pinned by digest, and an action
inside that container. Applied, idempotent on re-apply, and read back from the
machine rather than from the apply's own report. That is the first time the
container shape has worked in the lab at all, and it was the shape blocking the
substrate bootstrap.
Four faults found by running it, three of them mine and one worth keeping:
The read-back checked that the catalog endpoint answered, by looking for the
substring "repositories" -- which `{"repositories":[]}` also contains. So it
passed on a registry holding nothing, and the failure surfaced much later as a
container that could not be pulled. It now asks for each image's manifest BY
DIGEST, which is what a machine does.
A recursive push needs its destination to exist, or incus copies the source's
contents rather than the source. The data landed one directory too shallow and
the registry found nothing where it looks.
The registry writes its blobs as root through a bind mount, so the workstation
could not remove its own scratch directory afterwards. Whoever made the files
removes them -- the cleanup now runs in a container too. And a cleanup failure
no longer fails a raise that succeeded: the scenario is standing and usable,
and saying otherwise would be a false report.
The base image build did not verify that the runtime trusts the documentation
ranges as plain-HTTP registries. Writing the file is not the daemon honouring
it, and a base image that looks right fails much later, in a sealed scenario,
a long way from its cause. It is now read back from `docker info`.
Comments naming records that no longer exist now point at the consolidated
record holding their reasoning -- the four lab records are 0016, a test defends
a decision is 0017.
Issue 009's resolution, proven manually end to end before any of it was
written.
A sealed machine pulled an image BY DIGEST from a registry on its own segment
and ran it; then the host applied all four shapes -- package, service with
boot, container from that digest, and an action inside it -- idempotently. That
is the first time the container shape has worked anywhere but a workstation,
and it was the shape blocking the whole substrate bootstrap.
The registry's digests are its own, not Docker Hub's, and that is correct
rather than a compromise: ADR 0046 requires a reference that is exact and
cannot move, and a digest this registry assigned is both. It is also not a
lab workaround -- 0048 names an OCI registry as substrate and 0046 says a first
node fetches "upstream, wherever the image ordinarily lives". This IS that
upstream, scenery in the same sense the transit router is the internet.
The base image now trusts the RFC 5737 and RFC 3849 documentation ranges as
plain-HTTP registries. Scoped to those rather than an address because they
never route on the real internet, so it cannot make a real machine trust a real
registry whatever it is copied onto.
Three faults found while verifying, two of them mine:
My probe script picked an interface with `ls /sys/class/net | head -1`, which
returns docker0 once a runtime exists -- so it addressed the wrong interface and
then, because that address overlapped the segment, broke routing on the machine
entirely. The lab itself is immune: it matches by MAC, for a related reason it
already recorded (bus-position naming on multi-homed machines).
And a test that proved nothing: I asserted `sha256:tooshort` is rejected, but
its letters fall outside a-f, so it failed the character class rather than the
length check. Replaced with hex of the wrong length, after which removing the
length check bites.
ADR 0046's open consequence: "the lab needs a way to place images, and the
machine it places them into needs a container runtime, which a sealed scenario
cannot install either."
The runtime half is done, and it is research 012's reframing applied literally
-- fetch at build time on a machine with a network, apply on a target that
needs nothing. `mesh-lab base build` launches a machine WITH a network,
installs a runtime, verifies it by asking the runtime rather than the package
manager, and publishes the result. Measured: ~30s to install, ~60s to publish,
~700MiB, paid once per lab rather than per scenario.
A scenario that places `runtime` or an image is then raised from that base
image, chosen rather than declared -- a scenario says what it needs, not which
image provides it. If the base does not exist it says so and how to build it.
Verified in a genuinely sealed machine (no route out, confirmed by ping):
package, service including the new `boot: enabled`, and action all applied,
were idempotent on a second run, and read back correctly. Those three had never
run anywhere but a workstation.
The image half is NOT done, and testing found why: a digest-pinned image cannot
be placed from an archive. `docker save alpine@sha256:...` produces an archive
with no repo tag, because a repo digest only exists for an image a registry
served -- so it loads dangling and a container declaring that digest reaches
for a registry the machine cannot see.
That collides with ADR 0046, which has the host REFUSE an unpinned image. Tag
refused by the host, digest unusable in the lab: there is currently no
declaration the lab can raise that exercises the container shape at all. Filed
as 04-ISSUES/009, whose resolution is a registry inside the scenario -- which is
what the real mesh does rather than a workaround for the lab.
Also fixed a weak check of my own, which is the same fault in miniature: the
load was tested with `includes("Loaded image")`, a prefix of both `Loaded
image:` and `Loaded image ID:`. So an unusable dangling load reported success
and the failure surfaced later as a container that would not start.
package.json points mesh-lab at src/cli.ts; the lockfile still said
dist/cli.js. npm install corrected it while installing dependencies to run the
suite. Committing so the worktree is not permanently dirty.
The lab raised an underlay and put nothing on it: correct, and useless, because
the thing it exists to test did not exist. Tier 0 now does, so `place: [host]`
works and a raised scenario finally contains something.
The refusal narrows rather than disappearing. A scenario placing a host and a
substrate is told which half is missing, by name — not that `place:` is
unsupported when half of it now works.
Placement reads back rather than assuming. A file arriving is not a host
working, so the binary is run before it is trusted to answer questions, and what
it reports is read from the machine (ADR 0035). The binary comes from an
explicit path, because the declaration design leaves where artifacts come from
open and a search would harden into the answer by accident.
The integration test that matters is the one asserting the host reports the
MACHINE and not the workstation that placed it. A raised VM and this workstation
differ in every capability — root versus uid 1000, a clean init versus a
degraded one, no docker versus docker, no wireguard versus wg0 — so a host
reporting the wrong machine is obvious here and invisible anywhere else.
And the placed host independently confirms ADR 0031: overlay absent on a freshly
raised machine. The underlay suite already asserted that by looking for
wireguard interfaces; this is a second witness rather than the same check twice.
Two tests failed the moment placement worked, which is what they were for. They
defended "there is nothing to place yet" while that was true; the decision
changed, so they change with it rather than being deleted.
Gate: 75 unit, 20 integration.
The suite next door raises one scenario and asks deep questions of it. This one
asks shallow questions of every scenario — the half that was missing, since both
faults found by hand lived in scenarios nothing ever built.
Adds bootstrap-single, the cheapest, and the loop that lets the list grow. Also
adds the second universal invariant: every address a scenario declared is one
the machine actually holds. A machine that came up bare looks identical to one
that came up correctly until something asks it.
Verified to bite rather than assumed: against a live instance, the real
declaration passes and a declaration claiming an address nothing holds fails
with 'anchor declared 192.0.2.99 on hosting but holds 192.0.2.10'.
Integration now runs with --test-concurrency=1. Two files raise real instances,
node --test runs files in parallel by default, and two concurrent runs of this
suite already produced a whole-suite failure once — every test red, from
resource contention rather than from any fault in the code.
Gate: 45.7s -> 60.2s.
The address collision was found by eye. This is the mechanical form of it: no
two machines hold one address on one segment.
Pure over already-collected facts, so the logic is tested without a hypervisor
— including the cases that would make it useless if got wrong: the same address
on DIFFERENT segments is normal and must not be reported, and one machine
holding an address twice is not two machines.
Asserted against whatever the integration suite has standing, read from the
hypervisor rather than from the declaration. The declaration is what was
accepted, and it was accepted.
