Stores definitive chunk status (running/completed/pending) + - Updated by coordinator and workers as they process + - Cannot be affected by network issues + +2. **SSH May Fail** + - Network latency/timeouts common + - Transient infrastructure issues + - Should not dictate business logic + +3. **Workers Confirmed Running** + - Manual SSH verification: 22+ processes on worker1 + - Workers actively processing v9_chunk_000000 and v9_chunk_000001 + - Database shows 2 chunks with status="running" + +4. **Status Should Reflect Reality** + - If chunks are being processed → cluster is active + - SSH is supplementary for metrics (CPU, load) + - Not primary source of truth for status + +--- + +## Verification Results + +### Before Fix (SSH-Only Detection) +```json +{ + "cluster": { + "status": "idle", + "activeWorkers": 0, + "workerProcesses": 0 + }, + "workers": [ + {"name": "worker1", "status": "offline", "activeProcesses": 0}, + {"name": "worker2", "status": "offline", "activeProcesses": 0} + ] +} +``` + +### After Fix (Database-First Detection) +```json +{ + "cluster": { + "status": "active", // ✅ Changed from "idle" + "activeWorkers": 2, // ✅ Changed from 0 + "workerProcesses": 2 // ✅ Changed from 0 + }, + "workers": [ + {"name": "worker1", "status": "active", "activeProcesses": 1}, // ✅ Changed from "offline" + {"name": "worker2", "status": "active", "activeProcesses": 1} // ✅ Changed from "offline" + ], + "exploration": { + "chunks": { + "total": 2, + "completed": 0, + "running": 2, // ✅ Database shows 2 running chunks + "pending": 0 + } + } +} +``` + +### Container Logs Confirm Fix +``` +✅ Cluster status: ACTIVE (database shows running chunks) +✅ worker1: Database shows running chunks -
