Move backup root usage, runway, daily new data, and available capacity into
the top dashboard priority area so storage risk is visible before deeper trend
details.
Refs #27
Move required actions, upcoming scheduled work, and recent run activity to the
top of the dashboard so the first screen answers what needs attention next.
Keep summary metrics, trends, and host cards as supporting drill-down content.
Refs #27
Add inline Mark reviewed actions for failed and warning runs on the run list,
preserving active filters after review so Operational Status drill-downs can
be cleared without opening every run detail page.
Refs #22
Add a staff-only schedules page with filters for host, enabled state, and
prune state, including next run and last scheduler state.
Wire the dashboard Schedules metric to the new overview so all primary
dashboard count cards have useful destinations.
Refs #23
Turn the dashboard operational status rows into direct links to filtered run
lists, so failed, warning, running, and queued states can be investigated from
the first screen.
Also move the hosts anchor back to the actual Hosts section.
Refs #23
Add staff-only list pages for backup runs and snapshots with practical
filters, then wire the dashboard summary cards and latest-runs panel to
those overviews.
This gives the dashboard real drill-down paths for run and snapshot counts
instead of leaving the data only partially visible on the first screen.
Refs #23
Apply the shared page-header pattern to configuration, access,
operations, retention, log, and changelog pages so the control panel
uses one consistent title, context, and action structure.
Add representative view assertions for the new page context on utility
pages.
Refs #28
Introduce a shared page-header pattern with kicker, title, subtitle, and
actions, then apply it to the dashboard, host detail, run detail, snapshot
detail, and retention plan pages.
Scope the global app header styles to avoid leaking sticky navigation styles
onto page-level headers, and add view assertions for the new page context.
Refs #28
Refresh the shared base styling so the Django control panel has a calmer,
more polished production-tool feel across all pages. Update typography,
navigation, panels, metrics, host cards, tables, forms, buttons, messages,
focus states, and responsive behavior through reusable CSS variables and
component styles.
Refs #28
Replace refactor-era wording such as Source, Source root, SQL records,
database, runtime, and Django generation labels with operator-facing copy
around backup source, tracking records, changelog files, active config, and
pobsync-managed SSH keys.
Add view assertions so the old source/SQL labels do not quietly return.
Refs #24
Bring the 1.0.0 release notes up to date with the release-hardening work
completed after the initial metadata pass: worker heartbeat tracking,
incomplete snapshot cleanup, review resolution, SSH key management hardening,
purged snapshot audit history, and the in-app changelog page.

Refs #10
Refs #11
Refs #16
Refs #19
Refs #20
Record snapshot purge history whenever retention or incomplete cleanup removes
snapshot directories and SQL records. Store the purge reason, original kind,
path, action source, and triggering operator so manual, scheduled, CLI, and
incomplete cleanup actions remain auditable after the original snapshot record
is deleted.
Add a staff-only Purged Snapshots page with host/action filters and register
the audit model in Django admin.
Refs #16
Refs #8
Make SSH credential management more explicit by adding an edit action in the
key overview and requiring name confirmation before deletion. Keep deletion
blocked while a key is still selected by hosts or global config, and cover
rename, delete confirmation, and in-use protection in view tests.
Refs #20
Refs #8
Add reviewed state for failed/warning runs and incomplete snapshot records,
then use it to clear dashboard and host “need review” tasks after an operator
has acknowledged them.
Expose Mark reviewed actions on run detail and host retention warnings, keep
reviewed records available for audit/debug, and exclude reviewed problem runs
from operational counts and latest issue summaries.
Refs #19
Refs #8
Add a dedicated cleanup path for incomplete snapshots instead of letting
retention prune them implicitly. The retention plan now exposes a guarded
form that requires host and delete-count confirmation before removing
.incomplete snapshot directories and their SQL records.
Keep scheduled/manual retention behavior unchanged, add path safety checks,
and cover cleanup success, confirmation failures, max-delete limits, and
unexpected paths in tests.
Refs #10
Record worker pid, host, claim time, and heartbeat metadata on running
backup jobs so operators can see which worker owns a run.
Refresh the heartbeat while rsync is active and reconcile stale running
runs when the worker heartbeat stops. Add a worker option to tune or
disable stale-run reconciliation.
Refs #11
Expose the repository CHANGELOG.md through a staff-only Django view and
link it from the main navigation.
Render a small safe subset of Markdown without adding a runtime dependency,
copy the changelog into the Docker image, and cover the page with view tests.
Add the initial 1.0.0 changelog, bump the package/application version,
and expose the release version through `pobsync --version`.
Cover the version output in the console entrypoint tests.
Replace remaining model-name based configuration errors with labels that
match the Django-first operating model.
Add coverage for missing global config and host configuration errors so
operator-facing messages stay readable.
Prefer --schedule-expression for scripted schedule updates while keeping
--cron as a compatibility alias.
Clean up management command help, errors, and output so operator-facing
text talks about hosts, global config, and Django backup configuration
instead of model names or old SQL-backed pobsync wording.
Drop the unused GlobalConfig.data field and remove the remaining YAML
config path helpers from PobsyncPaths.
Keep HostConfig.config as runtime state for preflight data, and relabel it
in the admin so it no longer reads as legacy compatibility storage.
Drop the obsolete pobsync_home field from GlobalConfig and remove it from
runtime config generation, form saves, and configuration commands.
The runtime state root now comes exclusively from POBSYNC_HOME/settings,
which keeps the Django model focused on backup behavior instead of install
layout.
Drop the pre-Django YAML import/export management commands and remove the
file-based config loader fallback from the backup and retention engines.
Keep the runtime config bridge backed by Django models, and add tests that
ensure engine operations require an explicit Django config source.
Hide the old pobsync_home field from the Django admin and replace legacy
operator-facing labels with runtime state root and backup root terminology.
Rename admin compatibility fieldsets, update self-check/config-check text,
and refresh management command help so Django/systemd stays the primary
mental model.
Remove the short pobsync aliases for global config, host config, and
schedule changes so the public CLI no longer points operators toward the
old configuration workflow.
Keep operational aliases for backup, discovery, retention, worker, and
scheduler debugging, and document explicit Django management commands for
automation use.
Extend the restore guidance with directory and single-file dry-run
examples so operators can restore a focused path without copying an
entire snapshot.
Render the examples on snapshot detail pages using the selected
snapshot's data path and the host-specific staging destination.
Document the manual restore workflow in the README and surface snapshot-
specific restore commands on the snapshot detail page.
The guidance keeps restores intentionally manual for now: inspect the
snapshot data directory, run rsync with --dry-run, restore to staging
first, and treat hardlinked snapshot files as read-only.
Make queued, running, warning, and failed run states more visible at the
top of the dashboard with contextual status summaries and highlighted
summary metrics.
Also show an all-clear message when configured hosts have no active or
problematic runs.
Replace the dashboard trend metric grid with an operational summary that
explains storage usage, runway, average new data, link-dest savings, and
average duration in a more readable way.
Also add an empty state for fresh installs before completed backup stats
exist.
Add per-host status chips for queued, running, warning, and failed runs so
the dashboard shows operational pressure without needing to open each host.
Restructure host cards into clearer backup activity and snapshot health
sections, with less visual clutter and better mobile wrapping.
Split dashboard host cards into last successful backup and latest warning
or failed run so operators can quickly see whether a host is protected even
when recent activity produced an issue.
Also add queued and warning run counts to the dashboard summary metrics.
Record planned delete counts, max-delete settings, base protection, and
ignored incomplete snapshots in retention apply results.
Surface those details on run detail pages so scheduled and manual prune
outcomes are understandable without reading the raw JSON payload.
Update the scheduler to reflect the actual scheduled BackupRun status after
a run completes, so prune warnings are shown as schedule warnings instead
of being reported as successful schedule executions.
Make manual retention application more explicit by requiring operators to
confirm both the host name and the current number of planned deletions.
This reduces the risk of applying a stale or misunderstood retention plan
when the delete set changes between review and confirmation.
Show host-level retention warnings on run detail pages so successful or
warning runs still expose scheduled prune limit issues and incomplete
snapshots that need operator attention.
Show keep/delete reasons in the retention plan, surface scheduled prune
limit warnings, and explain base snapshot protection before retention is
applied.
Also surface incomplete snapshots from the retention views without deleting
them automatically, so interrupted backups are visible on the dashboard,
host detail, and retention plan.
Surface dry-run status, transfer estimates, file counts, warnings, and the full
rsync log link directly on the run detail page.
Keep raw rsync output and JSON available, but make the common review path easier
to scan before starting a real backup.
Add an on-demand host preflight action that verifies SSH reachability,
remote rsync availability, and remote source root access.
Persist the latest preflight result on the host config, render it in Django,
and block real backups when the last remote preflight failed.
Introduce a host preflight layer that separates dry-run blockers from real backup blockers.
Show the effective per-host backup configuration in Django before queueing a run.
Block real backup queueing when failed host checks remain, while still allowing dry-runs
when only local storage preparation is missing.
