#+TITLE: Session Context
#+DATE: 2026-01-19
* Current Session: Monday 2026-01-19 13:12 CST
** Summary
Diagnosed journald issue on ratio (slow shutdown), fixed for future installs, rebuilt ISO.
** What We Completed
*** Committed Previous Session Changes
- scripts/full-test.sh (new) - comprehensive install tests
- scripts/build-release - added --full-test option
- custom/install-archzfs - deploys zfssnapshot/zfsrollback to target
- assets/cogito-hardware-specs.txt
- Commit: c57f1a1
*** Added wget to Target System
- Added wget to pacstrap package list in install-archzfs
- Commit: a6fa09b
*** Diagnosed Slow Shutdown on ratio
- SSHed into ratio (root / welcome)
- Found journald wasn't creating journal files
- Root cause: journald starts ~650ms BEFORE ZFS mounts /var/log
- Journal files created in tmpfs, then hidden when ZFS mounts over it
- No logs from problematic shutdown (lost due to this issue)
*** Fixed journald for ZFS (on ratio)
Applied two drop-in configs:
- /etc/systemd/journald.conf.d/persistent.conf - enables persistent storage
- /etc/systemd/system/systemd-journal-flush.service.d/zfs.conf - waits for zfs-mount.service
*** Added journald Fix to install-archzfs
- Added same drop-in configs to configure_system() function
- Future installs will have proper journal persistence
- Commit: 24ede61
*** Built and Distributed New ISO
- ISO: archzfs-vmlinuz-6.12.66-lts-2026-01-19-x86_64.iso (5.2GB)
- Sanity test: 13/13 passed
- Distributed to all targets:
- ~/Downloads/isos/
- truenas.local:/mnt/vault/isos/
- /dev/sda (ARCHZFS USB)
- /dev/sdb1 (Ventoy)
** Commits This Session
- c57f1a1 Add comprehensive installation tests and ZFS script deployment
- a6fa09b Add wget to target system packages
- 24ede61 Fix journald on ZFS: wait for mounts, enable persistent storage
** Technical Notes
*** journald + ZFS Race Condition
- journald.socket starts at ~309ms
- zfs-mount.service completes at ~978ms
- Fix: Make systemd-journal-flush.service wait for zfs-mount.service
- This ensures logs flush to persistent storage after ZFS is mounted
*** ratio Machine
- Host: ratio (192.168.86.48)
- Login: root / welcome
- journald fix applied manually
- Next reboot should capture proper shutdown logs
** Next Steps
- Test ratio shutdown to see if issue is resolved (now have proper logs)
- If slow shutdown recurs, check journalctl -b -1 for details
