User-facing documentation

Testing and quality

  • the change is production ready: the change is GA, or otherwise the functionality is gated by a feature flag
  • CI results are inspected

Automated testing

  • added unit tests
  • added e2e tests
  • added regression tests
  • added compatibility tests
  • modified existing tests

How I validated my change

change me!

ROX-36220: reject unsupported source streams before database changes, report actionable errors, and throttle permanent failures. Preserve rollback protection and resumable migration metadata.

Generate initial-release sequences from GA tags and the unpublished development sequence. Keep patch baselines stable without release-workflow changes.

User request: "Implement the plan." Follow-up: "ok, let’s commit".

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Database upgrades are checked against the three preceding release streams. A recovery override can allow upgrades from older releases, but does not bypass rollback protections or missing migration requirements.
    • Rejected upgrades provide a diagnostic and pause before the migrator exits; Central does not start when migration fails.
    • Rollback and restore checks verify that the database meets the required migration-sequence floor.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Interrupted migrations can resume while preserving version and rollback-protection information.
    • Database connection, metadata, and migration errors are reported instead of being treated as a fresh database or silently ignored.
  • Documentation

    • Updated upgrade compatibility and migration guidance, including recovery steps.

Walkthrough

The migrator derives supported database versions from release metadata and checks upgrade and rollback compatibility. Upgrade and restore paths apply these checks. Migration checkpoints preserve source version metadata, and compatibility rejections are written to the termination log.

Changes

Database upgrade compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Release compatibility policy
pkg/migrations/*, pkg/env/migration.go, tools/generate-helpers/release-versions/*, tools/generate-helpers/bootstrap-migration/migration_impl.go.tpl, migrator/STARTUP_MIGRATIONS.md, migrator/README.md
Compatibility checks derive the supported release and sequence floor from generated release metadata. The generator builds that metadata from Git tags. The unsafe override bypasses the product-version check, not rollback or missing-migration checks. Migration guidance describes the N-3 release window.
Version reads and migration checkpoints
migrator/version/*, migrator/runner/*
Version reads distinguish fresh databases from populated databases without version metadata and reject invalid records. Migration checkpoints retain source-version metadata while advancing sequences. Version-write errors propagate to callers.
Upgrade, restore, and rejection handling
migrator/upgrade.go, migrator/upgrade_test.go, migrator/clone/postgres/*, migrator/main.go, migrator/version/compatibility.go, central/centralhealth/service/*, central/globaldb/v2backuprestore/formats/postgresv1/*, scripts/ci/bats/start_central_test.bats
Upgrade checks run before and after lock acquisition, followed by migration preflight. Restore and external-database scans check rollback and upgrade compatibility. Compatibility failures are logged, written to /dev/termination-log, and followed by a five-minute wait.
Rollback-boundary upgrade validation
tests/upgrade/*, Makefile
The upgrade test derives allowed and rejected release tags, verifies rejection while checking database version records, then runs smoke tests for the allowed and current releases.

Comment thread pkg/migrations/seq_num.go Outdated
Extend the existing upgrade journey with N-4 rejection, unchanged database metadata, N-3 release-matched smoke tests, and roll-forward smoke tests. Derive GA boundaries from release metadata; fail rather than skip when historical sequences cannot distinguish N-4. Keep Central DB unchanged during rollback.

User request: "It should fail to rollback to n-4 but succeed on n-3 and smoke test should pass"; "Implement the plan."
