 | |
| ## 3. Rehearsal (Staging) Checklist
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. `docker network create stellaops_frontdoor || true` (if not present on staging jump host).
 | |
| 2. Run `deploy/tools/validate-profiles.sh` and archive output.
 | |
| 3. Apply staging secrets (`kubectl apply -f secrets/stage/*.yaml` or `helm secrets upgrade`) ensuring `stellaops-stage` credentials align with `values-stage.yaml`.
 | |
| 4. Perform `helm upgrade stellaops deploy/helm/stellaops -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-stage.yaml` in staging cluster.
 | |
| 5. Verify health endpoints: `curl https://authority.stage.../healthz`, `curl https://scanner.stage.../healthz`.
 | |
| 6. Execute smoke CLI: `stellaops-cli scan submit --profile staging --sbom samples/sbom/demo.json` and confirm report status in UI.
 | |
| 7. Document total wall time and any deviations in the rehearsal log.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Rehearsal must complete without manual interventions before proceeding to production.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 4. Production Cutover Steps
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 4.1 Pre-flight
 | |
| - Confirm production secrets in the appropriate secret store (`stellaops-prod-core`, `stellaops-prod-mongo`, `stellaops-prod-minio`, `stellaops-prod-notify`) contain the keys referenced in `values-prod.yaml`.
 | |
| - Ensure the external reverse proxy network exists: `docker network create stellaops_frontdoor || true` on each compose host.
 | |
| - Back up current configuration and data:
 | |
|   - Mongo snapshot: `mongodump --uri "$MONGO_BACKUP_URI" --out /backups/launch-$(date -Iseconds)`.
 | |
|   - MinIO policy export: `mc mirror --overwrite minio/stellaops minio-backup/stellaops-$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M)`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 4.2 Apply Updates (Compose)
 | |
| 1. On each compose node, pull updated images for release `2025.09.2`:
 | |
|    ```bash
 | |
|    docker compose --env-file prod.env -f deploy/compose/docker-compose.prod.yaml pull
 | |
|    ```
 | |
| 2. Deploy changes:
 | |
|    ```bash
 | |
|    docker compose --env-file prod.env -f deploy/compose/docker-compose.prod.yaml up -d
 | |
|    ```
 | |
| 3. Confirm containers healthy via `docker compose ps` and `docker logs <service> --tail 50`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 4.3 Apply Updates (Helm/Kubernetes)
 | |
| If using Kubernetes, perform:
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| helm upgrade stellaops deploy/helm/stellaops -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-prod.yaml --atomic --timeout 15m
 | |
| ```
 | |
| Monitor rollout with `kubectl get pods -n stellaops --watch` and `kubectl rollout status deployment/<service>`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 4.4 Configuration Validation
 | |
| - Verify Authority issuer metadata: `curl https://authority.prod.../.well-known/openid-configuration`.
 | |
| - Validate Signer DSSE endpoint: `stellaops-cli signer verify --base-url https://signer.prod... --bundle samples/dsse/demo.json`.
 | |
| - Check Scanner queue connectivity: `docker exec stellaops-scanner-web dotnet StellaOps.Scanner.WebService.dll health queue` (returns success).
 | |
| - Ensure Notify (legacy) still accessible while Notifier migration pending.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 5. Smoke Tests
 | |
| 
 | |
| | Test | Command / Action | Expected Result |
 | |
| | --- | --- | --- |
 | |
| | API health | `curl https://scanner.prod.../healthz` | HTTP 200 with `status":"Healthy"` |
 | |
| | Scan submit | `stellaops-cli scan submit --profile prod --sbom samples/sbom/demo.json` | Scan completes < 5 minutes; report accessible with signed DSSE |
 | |
| | Runtime event ingest | Post sample event from Zastava observer fixture | `/runtime/events` responds 202 Accepted; record visible in Mongo `runtime_events` |
 | |
| | Signing | `stellaops-cli signer sign --bundle demo.json` | Returns DSSE with matching SHA256 and signer metadata |
 | |
| | Attestor verify | `stellaops-cli attestor verify --uuid <uuid>` | Verification result `ok=true` |
 | |
| | Web UI | Manual login, verify dashboards render and latency within budget | UI loads under 2 seconds; policy views consistent |
 | |
| 
 | |
| Log results in the change ticket with timestamps and screenshots where applicable.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 6. Rollback Procedure
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Assess failure scope; if systemic, initiate rollback immediately while preserving logs/artifacts.
 | |
| 2. For Compose:
 | |
|    ```bash
 | |
|    docker compose --env-file prod.env -f deploy/compose/docker-compose.prod.yaml down
 | |
|    docker compose --env-file stage.env -f deploy/compose/docker-compose.stage.yaml up -d
 | |
|    ```
 | |
| 3. For Helm:
 | |
|    ```bash
 | |
|    helm rollback stellaops <previous-release-number> --namespace stellaops
 | |
|    ```
 | |
| 4. Restore Mongo snapshot if data inconsistency detected: `mongorestore --uri "$MONGO_BACKUP_URI" --drop /backups/launch-<timestamp>`.
 | |
| 5. Restore MinIO mirror if required: `mc mirror minio-backup/stellaops-<timestamp> minio/stellaops`.
 | |
| 6. Notify stakeholders of rollback and capture root cause notes in incident ticket.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 7. Post-cutover Actions
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Keep heightened monitoring for 4 hours post cutover; track latency, error rates, and queue depth.
 | |
| - Confirm audit trails: Authority tokens issued, Scanner events recorded, Attestor submissions stored.
 | |
| - Update `docs/ops/launch-readiness.md` if any new gaps or follow-ups discovered.
 | |
| - Schedule retrospective within 48 hours; include DevOps, module guilds, and product owner.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 8. Approval Matrix
 | |
| 
 | |
| | Step | Required Approvers | Record Location |
 | |
| | --- | --- | --- |
 | |
| | Production deployment plan | CTO + DevOps lead | Change ticket comment |
 | |
| | Cutover start (T0) | DevOps lead + module reps | `#launch-bridge` summary |
 | |
| | Post-smoke success | DevOps lead + product owner | Change ticket closure |
 | |
| | Rollback (if invoked) | DevOps lead + CTO | Incident ticket |
 | |
| 
 | |
| Retain all approvals and logs for audit. Update this runbook after each execution to record actual timings and lessons learned.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 9. Rehearsal Log
 | |
| 
 | |
| | Date (UTC) | What We Exercised | Outcome | Follow-up |
 | |
| | --- | --- | --- | --- |
 | |
| | 2025-10-26 | Dry-run of compose/Helm validation via `deploy/tools/validate-profiles.sh` (dev/stage/prod/airgap/mirror). Network creation simulated (`docker network create stellaops_frontdoor` planned) and stage CLI submission reviewed. | Validation script succeeded; all profiles templated cleanly. Stage deployment apply deferred because no staging cluster is accessible from the current environment. | Schedule full stage rehearsal once staging cluster credentials are available; reuse this log section to capture timings. |
