agent overwrote the only test restore VM by reusing its name for the next verification run

Every test restore gets a unique name and its own lifecycle: reusing one name meant each run destroyed the previous test's evidence and, worse, could collide with a restore someone was still examining. Use when an agent running recurring restore verification tests. Not for a deliberately persistent golden test VM that…

agent verified a Rubrik restore by checking snapshot existence instead of booting the VM and passed a corrupt image

Existence is not restorability: the agent passed a corrupt image because its verification stopped at the snapshot listing. Use when an agent running restore verification for Rubrik-protected VMs. Not for a snapshot whose VM boots but whose application data is stale by design, such as a crash-consistent copy, where the…

agent counted offline VMs as patched after a snapshot revert restored their pre-patch state

Fixes this failure: judge VM patch compliance from inside the guest after the snapshot revert point: tag snapshots taken for patching, alert when a patched VM is reverted. Use when the exact error or symptom in the title appears. Not for a different error, tool, or a manual process with no such failure.

Velero restore failed "pod volume backup failed: snapshot is in failed state"

The pod volume snapshot underneath the restore is in a failed state, so the namespace metadata restores but the volume data cannot: inspect the pod volume backup objects for the failed snapshot, read the uploader's error for that volume, and fix its cause, commonly a full repository, a locked snapshot, or a node that …

agent failed to detect that Duplicacy was backing up an empty directory after a mount failed silently

An empty backup that succeeds is a failure wearing a success costume: when the source mount failed, duplicacy backed up the empty mount point and reported a clean run. Use when an agent verifying Duplicacy backups of mounted filesystems. Not for a legitimately near-empty source, such as a new share, where the gate nee…

agent timed out polling a Rubrik mount that had already failed and reported the restore as still in progress for a day

The mount had already failed and the agent polled its stale in-progress view for a day: mount operations have terminal failure states the poller must read from the task's own status, not infer from the mount's absence. Use when an agent waiting on Rubrik live mount operations during restore tests. Not for a mount that…
