# Operations

Procedures for operating the fleet. The LLM-specific pages live under
[LLM](../LLM/index.md); infrastructure and architecture under the
`../Infrastructure/` and `../Architecture/` folders.

- [[Remote Job Runner]] — detached long-job execution with sentinel files;
  why ssh tail-watchers fail
- [[Payload and Disk Reclaim]] — measure-classify-prove-stage-ask disk
  procedure, plus the purge-and-refresh protocol
- [[Container Host Reachability]] — netavark/pasta reachability quirks and
  the pasta port gate
- [[Fleet Ops Playbook]] — endpoint-down GPU-holder reclaim, scratch-boot
  stop-first, pre-commit iteration, incident-window reconstruction, WoL
- [[Fleet Audit and Posture]] — monitoring gaps, vhost probes, security
  posture, whole-fleet audit, bulk redaction, stash audits
- [[SSH and Remote Access]] — passwordless bootstrap without sshpass, fish
  login shells, GUI-hang diagnosis over ssh
- [[LLM Usage Attribution]] — who-is-using-the-fleet-LLMs research catalog:
  engine-native identity, gateways, tracing, network/host attribution, and
  the phased plan
