Session Log — 2026-05-28 — Discovery Deploy Verification + Server Rebuild Notice

Session Summary

Following the discovery fixes committed earlier this session (ICMP ping fallback fcf5833, scan timeout/409 guard c6f1f73), Howard asked whether Mike had deployed the new builds. Checked the live server and agent versions against the git log to determine deployment status.

The CI auto-bumped the agent to 0.6.49 (commit c8c6952) after the ICMP fix landed. WIN-TG2STMODJG8 reported agent_version: "0.6.49", confirming the agent-side fix is live. A test scan was run and found 25 unique devices — up from 9 previously — confirming the ICMP ping fallback is working and discovering machines that had all TCP ports firewalled.

The server-side fix (scan timeout + concurrent scan 409 guard) is not deployed. The server Cargo.toml is at 0.3.36 but the live binary is still the old version. This was confirmed by triggering two back-to-back scans: both returned new scan IDs instead of the second getting a 409. The two test scans ran concurrently and both completed normally (WIN-TG2STMODJG8 was connected), but the new_devices counts were inflated because both scans claimed credit for the same newly-inserted IPs within their overlapping windows.

A coord message was sent to Mike (id: 88c733a8) requesting a server rebuild and service restart on 172.16.3.30 to activate the 0.3.36 binary.


Key Decisions

  • Tested 409 guard by triggering two rapid scans — the cleanest live confirmation that the server fix is or isn't deployed. Two distinct scan IDs = old binary confirmed.
  • Coord message rather than waiting — Howard doesn't rebuild the server; Mike owns that. Coord message is the right handoff.

Problems Encountered

  • First coord POST returned parse error — newlines inside the JSON string literal caused the parse failure. Resolved by switching to heredoc (--data-binary @- with <<'JSON').

Commands & Outputs

# Agent version check
GET /api/agents/eee9f26d... → agent_version: "0.6.49"  (ICMP fix deployed)

# Server 409 guard test — two rapid scan triggers
POST /api/sites/eeb5f001.../discovery/scan → scan_id: b29bd012... (initiated)
POST /api/sites/eeb5f001.../discovery/scan → scan_id: fbd163b5... (initiated — NOT 409)
# → Server fix NOT deployed, old binary still running

# Both test scans completed normally
# devices_found: 10 + 25 (concurrent, inflated new_devices count due to overlap)
# Total unique devices in DB: 25 (up from 9 before ICMP fix)

# Coord message to Mike
POST /api/coord/messages → id: 88c733a8
# Subject: "Server rebuild needed — discovery timeout fix (0.3.36)"

Pending / Incomplete Tasks

  • Server rebuild (Mike): 172.16.3.30 needs rebuild + restart to deploy server 0.3.36 (scan timeout + 409 concurrent guard). Coord message sent: 88c733a8.
  • Discovery auto-deploy (P2): Not built — future feature.
  • Discovery scheduling (P2): UI has options but backend not wired.
  • SPEC-012 implementation: Sortable table headers, ready for sprint.
  • SPEC-013 (P3): Deferred pending file transfer.
  • SPEC-014 follow-up (Mike's): Policy tab for watch rules; push rules on agent connect.
  • Cascades pending migration: M365 relicensing (time-sensitive), domain joins, HIPAA GPO, credential vault, Entra Connect expansion.

Reference Information

  • Agent 0.6.49 CI bump commit: c8c6952 (0.6.48 → 0.6.49, after ICMP fix fcf5833)
  • Server 0.3.36 CI bump commit: a0a00bf (0.3.35 → 0.3.36, after scan timeout fix c6f1f73)
  • ICMP fix: fcf5833 — agent/src/discovery/mod.rs — ping_host() fallback
  • Timeout fix: c6f1f73 — server/src/api/discovery.rs + server/src/db/discovery.rs
  • Coord message: 88c733a8 — "Server rebuild needed — discovery timeout fix (0.3.36)"
  • Discovered devices now in DB: 25 unique IPs (was 9 before ICMP fix)
