Conversation
Backend is a chain (Local -> ConfigMap -> PerCapturePVC) and Stat answers from the first tier that claims a hash, so the tiers can disagree. A per-capture PVC left behind by an earlier capture claims a hash whose manifest tier is gone and returns a manifest describing no content. Capture treated any successful Stat as "already captured", so it skipped the work and the watcher logged capture skipped: hash already exists capture committed for pod files=0 size_mib=0 both at info. The pod is recorded as captured and cannot be restored, and nothing says so. On a 70B TP=4 workload this turned a stale artifact into a silent 60-minute wait for a manifest that was never going to be written. Treat a manifest with no files or no bytes as unusable: warn that the tiers are inconsistent for that hash, and re-capture. A workload that genuinely captured nothing is then re-captured every pass rather than skipped -- cheap, since there is nothing to copy, and better than caching something restore cannot use. This makes the inconsistency loud, not impossible. Converging the tiers, or requiring the manifest tier specifically since restore needs it, is a larger change left for #959.

…ment The comment carried workload-specific debugging context and log excerpts from the run that surfaced this, which an external reader of the public repo cannot access and does not need. Keep the mechanism -- tiers can disagree, the skip is logged as a successful commit, nothing downstream can tell -- and drop the rest. Co-Authored-By: Balaji Ganesan <bganesan@nvidia.com>
Why
When the backend tiers disagree about a hash, the agent skips the capture and reports success, leaving the pod recorded as captured but unrestorable.
Observed on a 70B TP=4 workload:
Both lines are
info, so it reads as success. The e2e then sat for 60 minutes waiting for a manifest that was never going to be written.Backendis a chain (Local -> ConfigMap -> PerCapturePVC) andStatanswers from the first tier that claims the hash. A per-capture PVC left behind by an earlier capture claims a hash whose manifest tier is gone, and returns a manifest describing no content.Capturetreated any successfulStatas "already captured" and returned it unchanged, so a partially-removed capture was indistinguishable from a complete one.Anything that removes one tier without the others reproduces this: manifest GC, partial cleanup, a failed promote.
What changed
Treat a manifest with no files or no bytes as not a usable capture: log at
warnthat the tiers are inconsistent for that hash, and re-capture.Customer Release Notes
A pod whose stored capture is incomplete is now re-captured instead of being silently recorded as captured-but-unrestorable.
Plan Summary
Not applicable.
Usage
Not applicable.
Testing
New unit tests cover the decision this turns on: a real capture still short-circuits, and each shape of empty manifest (no files, no bytes, neither) does not.
go build ./...clean,internal/...andcmd/...pass. The new test file is registered inBUILD.bazelso the generated-files check stays green.Not reproduced end to end on a cluster: doing so means deliberately deleting one tier of a real capture and waiting out a capture cycle. The production occurrence is quoted above, and the unit tests pin the decision that caused it.
Notes
Two limits worth stating rather than glossing:
FileCount/TotalSizeBytesare the only emptiness signal available at that point, so a workload that genuinely captured nothing is re-captured on every pass instead of skipped. That is cheap -- there is nothing to copy -- and preferable to caching something restore cannot use.References
Closes #959
Related Pull Requests
Found while validating #945; independent of it. #945 changes behaviour only for workloads with runtime directories, this changes when any capture is considered to exist -- kept separate so they can be reviewed and reverted independently.
