+# Telemetry Validation CI Workflow
+#
+# Builds rippled with telemetry enabled, runs the multi-node workload
+# harness, validates all telemetry data, and runs performance benchmarks.
+#
+# This is a separate workflow from the main CI. It runs:
+# - On manual dispatch (workflow_dispatch)
+# - On pushes to telemetry-related branches
+#
+# The workflow is intentionally heavyweight (builds rippled, starts Docker
+# services, runs a multi-node cluster) — it validates the full telemetry
+# stack end-to-end rather than individual unit tests.
+#
+# Architecture: two jobs to leverage cached dependencies:
+# 1. build-xrpld — runs on a self-hosted runner inside the same container
+# image the main CI uses (debian-bookworm-gcc-13). This ensures Conan
+# packages are fetched from the XRPLF remote instead of built from
+# source, and ccache hits the remote cache.
+# 2. validate-telemetry — runs on ubuntu-latest (which has Docker) to
+# launch the telemetry stack (OTel collector, Prometheus, Tempo, etc.)
+# and validate the full pipeline end-to-end.

-## 6.8.3 Phase 10: Synthetic Workload Generation & Telemetry Validation (Weeks 16-17) — Future Enhancement
+## 6.8.3 Phase 10: Synthetic Workload Generation & Telemetry Validation (Weeks 16-17)
-> **Status**: Planned, not yet implemented.
+> **Status**: In progress.
### Motivation
-Before the telemetry stack (Phases 1-9) can be considered production-ready, we need automated proof that all 16 spans, 22 attributes, 300+ metrics, 10 Grafana dashboards, and log-trace correlation work correctly under realistic load. This phase establishes a reusable CI-integrated validation suite and performance benchmark baseline.
+Before the telemetry stack (Phases 1-9) can be considered production-ready, we need automated proof that all spans, attributes, metrics, Grafana dashboards, and log-trace correlation work correctly under realistic load. This phase establishes a reusable CI-integrated validation suite and performance benchmark baseline.
### Architecture
+The validation uses a **2-node** validator cluster running as local processes alongside a Docker Compose telemetry stack (Collector, Jaeger, Prometheus, Grafana). Two nodes are sufficient for consensus rounds and peer-to-peer span validation while minimizing CI resource usage.

+### Key Implementation Details
+
+- **Transaction submitter and RPC load generator** both use rippled's native WebSocket command format (`{"command": ...}`) — not JSON-RPC format. Response data lives inside `"result"` with `"status"` at the top level.
+- **Node config** requires `[signing_support] true` for server-side signing, and `[ips]` (not `[ips_fixed]`) to ensure peer connections count in `Peer_Finder_Active_*` metrics.
+- **Metric validation** uses the Prometheus `/api/v1/series` endpoint (not instant queries) to avoid false negatives from stale StatsD gauges. Every metric in `expected_metrics.json` must have > 0 series.
+- **StatsD gauge fix**: `StatsDGaugeImpl` initializes `m_dirty = true` so all gauges emit their initial value on first flush. Without this, gauges starting at 0 that never change (e.g. `jobq_job_count`) would be invisible in Prometheus.
+- **I/O latency fix**: `io_latency_sampler` emits unconditionally on first sample, then applies the 10 ms threshold. This ensures `ios_latency` is registered in Prometheus even in low-load CI environments.
+- **tx.receive span**: Sets default attributes (`xrpl.tx.suppressed = false`, `xrpl.tx.status = "new"`) on span creation so they are always present. The suppressed/bad code paths override these when applicable.

See [Phase10_taskList.md](./Phase10_taskList.md) for detailed per-task breakdown.
+### Validation Check Inventory (71 Checks)
+
+The validation suite (`validate_telemetry.py`) runs exactly 71 checks, broken down as:
+
+- **1 service registration** — `rippled` exists in Jaeger
+- **17 span existence** — `rpc.request`, `rpc.process`, `rpc.ws_message`, `rpc.command.*`, `tx.process`, `tx.receive`, `tx.apply`, `consensus.proposal.send`, `consensus.ledger_close`, `consensus.accept`, `consensus.validation.send`, `consensus.accept.apply`, `ledger.build`, `ledger.validate`, `ledger.store`, `peer.proposal.receive`, `peer.validation.receive`
+- **14 span attribute** — required attributes on the 14 spans that define them (22 unique attributes total)
+- **2 span hierarchies** — `rpc.process` -> `rpc.command.*`, `ledger.build` -> `tx.apply` (1 skipped: `rpc.request` -> `rpc.process`, cross-thread)
+- **1 span duration bounds** — all spans > 0 and < 60 s
+- **26 metric existence** — 4 SpanMetrics (`traces_span_metrics_calls_total`, `..._duration_milliseconds_{bucket,count,sum}`), 6 StatsD gauges (`LedgerMaster_Validated_Ledger_Age`, `Published_Ledger_Age`, `State_Accounting_Full_duration`, `Peer_Finder_Active_{Inbound,Outbound}_Peers`, `jobq_job_count`), 2 StatsD counters (`rpc_requests_total`, `ledger_fetches_total`), 3 StatsD histograms (`rpc_time`, `rpc_size`, `ios_latency`), 4 overlay traffic (`total_Bytes_{In,Out}`, `total_Messages_{In,Out}`), 7 Phase 9 OTLP (`nodestore_state`, `cache_metrics`, `txq_metrics`, `rpc_method_{started,finished}_total`, `object_count`, `load_factor_metrics`)
+- **10 dashboard loads** — `rippled-rpc-perf`, `rippled-transactions`, `rippled-consensus`, `rippled-ledger-ops`, `rippled-peer-net`, `rippled-system-node-health`, `rippled-system-network`, `rippled-system-rpc`, `rippled-system-overlay-detail`, `rippled-system-ledger-sync`
+
+See [Phase10_taskList.md](./Phase10_taskList.md) for the full numbered check-by-check enumeration.
+
+### Current Status
+
+**Working** (71/71 checks pass in CI):
+All 17 spans, 26 metrics, 10 dashboards, 14 attribute checks, 2 hierarchies, and duration bounds validated.
+
+**Not implemented or not available in CI**:
+
+1. Performance benchmark suite (Task 10.5) — not started
+2. `rpc.request` -> `rpc.process` parent-child hierarchy — skipped (cross-thread context propagation)
+3. Log-trace correlation validation (Loki) — not included in checks
+4. Full 255+ StatsD metric coverage — only 26 representative metrics validated
+5. Sustained load / backpressure testing — not implemented
+6. `docs/telemetry-runbook.md` updates — not done
+7. `09-data-collection-reference.md` "Validation" section — not done

+# Docker Compose workload harness for Phase 10 telemetry validation.
+#
+# Runs a 5-node validator cluster with full OTel telemetry stack:
+# - 5 rippled validator nodes (consensus network)
+# - OTel Collector (traces + StatsD metrics)
+# - Jaeger (trace search UI)
+# - Tempo (production trace backend)
+# - Prometheus (metrics)
+# - Loki (log aggregation for log-trace correlation)
+# - Grafana (dashboards + trace/log exploration)
+#
+# Usage:
+# # Start the harness (requires pre-built xrpld image or mount binary):
+# docker compose -f docker/telemetry/docker-compose.workload.yaml up -d
+#
+# # Or use the orchestrator:
+# docker/telemetry/workload/run-full-validation.sh
+#
+# Prerequisites:
+# - xrpld binary built with -DXRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=ON
+# - Validator keys generated via generate-validator-keys.sh
+# - Node configs generated by run-full-validation.sh
+#
+# Note: No Docker healthchecks are defined here. The orchestrator script
+# (run-full-validation.sh) polls each service endpoint directly from the
+# host, which avoids issues with missing curl/wget in container images.

+# Telemetry Workload Tools
+
+Synthetic workload generation and validation tools for rippled's OpenTelemetry telemetry stack. These tools validate that all spans, metrics, dashboards, and log-trace correlation work end-to-end under controlled load.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Build rippled with telemetry enabled
+conan install . --build=missing -o telemetry=True
+cmake --preset default -Dtelemetry=ON
+cmake --build --preset default
+
+# Run full validation (starts everything, runs load, validates)
+docker/telemetry/workload/run-full-validation.sh --xrpld .build/xrpld
+
+# Cleanup when done
+docker/telemetry/workload/run-full-validation.sh --cleanup
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+The validation suite runs a 2-node rippled cluster as local processes alongside
+a Docker Compose telemetry stack. The 2-node setup is sufficient for exercising
+consensus, peer-to-peer spans (proposals, validations), and all metric pipelines,
+while keeping CI resource usage manageable.
+
+```
+run-full-validation.sh (orchestrator)
+ |
+ |-- docker-compose.workload.yaml
+ | |-- otel-collector (traces via OTLP + StatsD receiver)
+ | |-- jaeger (trace search API)
+ | |-- prometheus (metrics scraping)
+ | |-- grafana (dashboards, provisioned automatically)
+ |
+ |-- generate-validator-keys.sh
+ | -> validator-keys.json, validators.txt
+ |
+ |-- 2x xrpld nodes (local processes, full telemetry)
+ | - Each node: [telemetry] enabled=1, trace_rpc/consensus/transactions
+ | - [signing_support] true (server-side signing for tx_submitter)
+ | - Peer discovery via [ips] (not [ips_fixed]) for active peer counts
+ |
+ |-- rpc_load_generator.py (WebSocket RPC traffic)
+ |-- tx_submitter.py (transaction diversity)
+ |
+ |-- validate_telemetry.py (pass/fail checks)
+ | -> validation-report.json
+ |
+ |-- benchmark.sh (baseline vs telemetry comparison)
+ -> benchmark-report-*.md
+```
+
+## Tools Reference
+
+### run-full-validation.sh
+
+Orchestrates the complete validation pipeline. Starts the telemetry stack, starts a multi-node rippled cluster, generates load, and validates the results.
+
+```bash
+# Full validation with defaults
+./run-full-validation.sh --xrpld /path/to/xrpld
+
+# Custom load parameters
+./run-full-validation.sh --xrpld /path/to/xrpld \
+ --rpc-rate 100 --rpc-duration 300 \
+ --tx-tps 10 --tx-duration 300
+
+# Include performance benchmarks
+./run-full-validation.sh --xrpld /path/to/xrpld --with-benchmark
+
+# Skip Loki checks (if Phase 8 not deployed)
+./run-full-validation.sh --xrpld /path/to/xrpld --skip-loki
+```
+
+### rpc_load_generator.py
+
+Generates RPC traffic matching realistic production distribution. Uses
+rippled's **native WebSocket command format** (`{"command": ...}`) with flat
+parameters — the same format as `tx_submitter.py`.
+
+- 40% health checks (server_info, fee)
+- 30% wallet queries (account_info, account_lines, account_objects)
+- 15% explorer queries (ledger, ledger_data)
+- 10% transaction lookups (tx, account_tx)
+- 5% DEX queries (book_offers, amm_info)
+
+```bash
+# Basic usage
+python3 rpc_load_generator.py --endpoints ws://localhost:6006 --rate 50 --duration 120
+
+# Multiple endpoints (round-robin)
+python3 rpc_load_generator.py \
+ --endpoints ws://localhost:6006 ws://localhost:6007 \
+ --rate 100 --duration 300
+
+# Custom weights
+python3 rpc_load_generator.py --endpoints ws://localhost:6006 \
+ --weights '{"server_info": 80, "account_info": 20}'
+```
+
+### tx_submitter.py
+
+Submits diverse transaction types to exercise the full span and metric surface.
+Uses rippled's **native WebSocket command format** (`{"command": ...}`) rather
+than JSON-RPC format. The response payload is inside the `"result"` key, with
+`"status"` at the top level.
+
+Supported transaction types:
+
+- Payment (XRP transfers) — exercises `tx.process`, `tx.receive`, `tx.apply`
+- OfferCreate / OfferCancel (DEX activity)
+- TrustSet (trust line creation)
+- NFTokenMint / NFTokenCreateOffer (NFT activity)
+- EscrowCreate / EscrowFinish (escrow lifecycle)
+- AMMCreate / AMMDeposit (AMM pool operations)
+
+Requires `[signing_support] true` in the node config for server-side signing.
+
+```bash
+# Basic usage
+python3 tx_submitter.py --endpoint ws://localhost:6006 --tps 5 --duration 120
+
+# Custom mix
+python3 tx_submitter.py --endpoint ws://localhost:6006 \
+ --weights '{"Payment": 60, "OfferCreate": 20, "TrustSet": 20}'
+```
+
+### validate_telemetry.py
+
+Automated validation that all expected telemetry data exists. Every metric and span is required — if it doesn't fire, the validation fails.
+
+- **Span validation**: All span types from `expected_spans.json` with required attributes and parent-child hierarchies
+- **Metric validation**: All metrics from `expected_metrics.json` — SpanMetrics, StatsD gauges/counters/histograms, Phase 9 OTLP metrics. Every listed metric must have > 0 series. Uses the Prometheus `/api/v1/series` endpoint (not instant queries) to avoid false negatives from stale gauges.
+- **Log-trace correlation**: trace_id/span_id in Loki logs (requires Loki)
+- **Dashboard validation**: All 10 Grafana dashboards load with panels
+
+```bash
+# Run all validations
+python3 validate_telemetry.py --report /tmp/report.json
+
+# Skip Loki checks
+python3 validate_telemetry.py --skip-loki --report /tmp/report.json
+```
+
+### benchmark.sh
+
+Compares baseline (no telemetry) vs telemetry-enabled performance:
+
+```bash
+./benchmark.sh --xrpld /path/to/xrpld --duration 300
+```
+
+Thresholds (configurable via environment):
+
+| Metric | Threshold | Env Variable |
+| ----------------- | --------- | --------------------------- |
+| CPU overhead | < 3% | BENCH_CPU_OVERHEAD_PCT |
+| Memory overhead | < 5MB | BENCH_MEM_OVERHEAD_MB |
+| RPC p99 latency | < 2ms | BENCH_RPC_LATENCY_IMPACT_MS |
+| Throughput impact | < 5% | BENCH_TPS_IMPACT_PCT |
+| Consensus impact | < 1% | BENCH_CONSENSUS_IMPACT_PCT |
+
+## Reading Validation Reports
+
+The validation report (`validation-report.json`) is structured as:
+
+```json
+{
+ "summary": {
+ "total": 45,
+ "passed": 42,
+ "failed": 3,
+ "all_passed": false
+ },
+ "checks": [
+ {
+ "name": "span.rpc.request",
+ "category": "span",
+ "passed": true,
+ "message": "rpc.request: 15 traces found",
+ "details": { "trace_count": 15 }
+ }
+ ]
+}
+```
+
+Categories:
+
+- **span**: Span type existence and attribute validation
+- **metric**: Prometheus metric existence
+- **log**: Log-trace correlation checks
+- **dashboard**: Grafana dashboard accessibility
+
+## CI Integration
+
+The validation runs as a GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/telemetry-validation.yml`):
+
+- Triggered manually or on pushes to telemetry branches
+- Builds rippled, starts the full stack, runs load, validates
+- Uploads reports as artifacts
+- Posts summary to PR
+
+## Configuration Files
+
+| File | Purpose |
+| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `expected_spans.json` | Span inventory (names, attributes, hierarchies, config flags) |
+| `expected_metrics.json` | Metric inventory — every listed metric must be present |
+| `test_accounts.json` | Test account roles (keys generated at runtime) |
+| `requirements.txt` | Python dependencies |
+
+### expected_metrics.json Format
+
+```json
+{
+ "category_name": {
+ "description": "Human-readable description.",
+ "metrics": ["metric_1", "metric_2"]
+ }
+}
+```
+
+Every metric listed must produce > 0 Prometheus series during the validation run. If a metric doesn't fire, the workload generators need to produce enough load to trigger it.
+
+### expected_spans.json Format
+
+Each span entry defines its name, category, parent (for hierarchy validation),
+required attributes, and the `config_flag` that must be enabled:
+
+```json
+{
+ "name": "rpc.request",
+ "category": "rpc",
+ "parent": null,
+ "required_attributes": ["rpc.method", "rpc.grpc.status_code"],
+ "config_flag": "trace_rpc"
+}
+```
+
+## Node Configuration Notes
+
+The orchestrator (`run-full-validation.sh`) generates node configs with:
+
+- `[telemetry] enabled=1` with all trace categories (`trace_rpc`, `trace_consensus`, `trace_transactions`)
+- `[signing_support] true` — required for `tx_submitter.py` to submit signed transactions via WebSocket
+- `[ips]` (not `[ips_fixed]`) — ensures peer connections are counted in `Peer_Finder_Active_Inbound/Outbound_Peers` metrics (fixed peers are excluded from these counters by design)
+
+## StatsD Gauge Behaviour
+
+Beast::insight StatsD gauges only emit when their value _changes_ from the previous sample. This can cause two problems in the validation environment:
+
+1. **Initial-zero gauges** — if a gauge value is 0 from startup and never changes, the gauge would never emit. To address this, `StatsDGaugeImpl` initializes `m_dirty = true`, ensuring the first flush always emits the initial value.
+2. **Stale gauges** — once a gauge stabilizes (e.g., peer count stays at 1), it stops emitting new data points. Prometheus marks it stale after ~5 minutes. The validation script uses the Prometheus `/api/v1/series` endpoint instead of instant queries to catch such gauges.

When telemetry is compiled out, all trace macros expand to no-ops with zero overhead.
+
+## Validating Telemetry Stack
+
+After deploying telemetry, use the Phase 10 workload tools to validate the full stack end-to-end.
+
+### Quick Validation
+
+```bash
+# Run the full validation suite (starts cluster, generates load, validates):
+docker/telemetry/workload/run-full-validation.sh --xrpld .build/xrpld
+
+# Check the report:
+cat /tmp/xrpld-validation/reports/validation-report.json | jq '.summary'
+```
+
+### What Gets Validated
+
+| Category | Checks | Description |
+| ---------- | -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Spans | 16+ span types | All span names appear in Jaeger with required attributes |
+| Metrics | 30+ metrics | SpanMetrics, StatsD gauges/counters, Phase 9 metrics |
+| Logs | 2 checks | trace_id/span_id present in Loki, cross-reference works |
+| Dashboards | 10 dashboards | All Grafana dashboards load without errors |
+
+### Running Individual Tools
+
+```bash
+# RPC load only:
+python3 docker/telemetry/workload/rpc_load_generator.py \
+ --endpoints ws://localhost:6006 --rate 50 --duration 120
+
+# Transaction mix only:
+python3 docker/telemetry/workload/tx_submitter.py \
+ --endpoint ws://localhost:6006 --tps 5 --duration 120
+
+# Validation only (assumes load already ran):
+python3 docker/telemetry/workload/validate_telemetry.py \
+ --report /tmp/report.json
+```
+
+### Interpreting Failures
+
+- **Span failures**: Check that the relevant trace category is enabled in `[telemetry]` config (e.g., `trace_rpc=1`).
+- **Metric failures**: Verify the OTel Collector is running and Prometheus is scraping port 8889. Check `docker compose logs otel-collector`.
+- **Dashboard failures**: Ensure Grafana provisioning is mounted correctly. Check `docker compose logs grafana`.
+
+## Performance Benchmarking
+
+Measure the overhead of the telemetry stack against a baseline:
+
+```bash
+docker/telemetry/workload/benchmark.sh --xrpld .build/xrpld --duration 300
+```
+
+### Benchmark Thresholds
+
+| Metric | Target | Description |
+| ----------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------- |
+| CPU overhead | < 3% | Average CPU increase across nodes |
+| Memory overhead | < 5MB | Peak RSS increase per node |
+| RPC p99 latency | < 2ms | Additional p99 latency for server_info |
+| Throughput impact | < 5% | Reduction in ledger close rate |
+| Consensus impact | < 1% | Increase in consensus round time |
+
+### Tuning for Production
+
+If benchmarks exceed thresholds:
+
+1. **Reduce sampling**: `sampling_ratio=0.01` (1% of traces)
+2. **Disable peer tracing**: `trace_peer=0` (highest volume category)
+3. **Increase batch delay**: `batch_delay_ms=10000` (less frequent exports)
+4. **Reduce queue size**: `max_queue_size=1024` (back-pressure earlier)
+
+See `docker/telemetry/workload/README.md` for full documentation.

+# Fix Telemetry Validation Checks
+
+## Context
+
+The CI pipeline infrastructure is fully operational (build + deploy + run). However,
+the `validate_telemetry.py` validation suite fails 35 checks due to mismatches between
+what the validation expects and what the telemetry stack actually produces. These fall
+into 4 categories.
+
+CI run: https://github.com/XRPLF/rippled/actions/runs/23026466191
+
+---
+
+## Category 1: StatsD Metrics — 0 Series (25 failures)
+
+**Symptoms:**
+
+```
+[FAIL] metric.statsd_gauges.rippled_LedgerMaster_Validated_Ledger_Age: 0 series
+[FAIL] metric.statsd_counters.rippled_rpc_requests: 0 series
+[FAIL] metric.statsd_histograms.rippled_rpc_time: 0 series
+[FAIL] metric.overlay_traffic.rippled_total_Bytes_In: 0 series
+[FAIL] metric.phase9_nodestore.rippled_nodestore_reads_total: 0 series
+... (25 total)
+```
+
+**Root Cause:** Two issues compounding:
+
+1. **StatsD receiver is commented out** in `otel-collector-config.yaml` (lines 39-54).
+ The collector config was updated to expect native OTLP metrics from beast::insight
+ (comment: "StatsD UDP port removed — beast::insight now uses native OTLP"), but
+ the validation harness configures xrpld nodes with `server=statsd`.
+
+2. **Metric name mismatch:** The `expected_metrics.json` expects StatsD-style metric
+ names (e.g., `rippled_LedgerMaster_Validated_Ledger_Age`). When using `server=otel`,
+ beast::insight emits OTLP metrics which may have different names/structure.
+
+**Fix Options (pick one):**
+
+- **Option A (recommended):** Change the node config in `run-full-validation.sh` from
+ `server=statsd` to `server=otel` (line 255), remove the `address=127.0.0.1:8125` line,
+ then update `expected_metrics.json` with the actual OTLP metric names. This aligns with
+ the collector config's OTLP-first design and avoids re-enabling the StatsD receiver.
+
+- **Option B:** Uncomment the StatsD receiver in `otel-collector-config.yaml`, add
+ `statsd` to the metrics pipeline receivers list, and keep node config as `server=statsd`.
+ Simpler but goes against the migration to native OTLP.
+
+**Investigation needed for Option A:**
+
+- Run xrpld locally with `server=otel`, query Prometheus, and capture the actual OTLP
+ metric names to update `expected_metrics.json`.
+
+**Files to modify:**
+
+- `docker/telemetry/workload/run-full-validation.sh` — change `[insight]` section
+- `docker/telemetry/workload/expected_metrics.json` — update metric names for OTLP
+- `docker/telemetry/workload/validate_telemetry.py` — may need metric query adjustments
+
+---
+
+## Category 2: Missing Spans — tx.process, tx.receive (2 failures)
+
+**Symptoms:**
+
+```
+[FAIL] span.tx.process: tx.process: 0 traces (expected > 0)
+[FAIL] span.tx.receive: tx.receive: 0 traces (expected > 0)
+```
+
+**Root Cause:** The span names exist in the code:
+
+- `src/xrpld/app/misc/NetworkOPs.cpp:1228` — `XRPL_TRACE_TX("tx.process")`
+- `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp:1273` — `XRPL_TRACE_TX("tx.receive")`
+
+Likely causes (investigate in order):
+
+1. **Batch delay:** The 2-second batch delay (`batch_delay_ms=2000`) plus 30s propagation
+ wait may not be enough if these spans are created late in the workload.
+2. **Code path not triggered:** `tx.process` fires in `NetworkOPs::processTransaction()`.
+ The tx_submitter submits via RPC `submit` command which calls this path. But if the
+ transactions fail validation before reaching `processTransaction()`, no span is emitted.
+3. **Span naming mismatch:** The validation queries Jaeger for exact operation name
+ `tx.process`. Verify Jaeger stores the span with this exact name.
+
+**Investigation:**
+
+- Check the tx_submitter output in CI logs — are transactions actually succeeding?
+- Query Jaeger API locally for all span names to see what's actually emitted.
+
+**Files to modify:**
+
+- Possibly `docker/telemetry/workload/validate_telemetry.py` — adjust timing/queries
+- Possibly `docker/telemetry/workload/run-full-validation.sh` — increase propagation wait
+
+---
+
+## Category 3: Span Hierarchy — rpc.request -> rpc.process (1 failure)
+
+**Symptoms:**
+
+```
+[FAIL] span.hierarchy.rpc.request->rpc.process: rpc.process not found in rpc.request traces
+```
+
+**Root Cause:** The validator fetches traces containing `rpc.request` from Jaeger and
+checks if any child span is named `rpc.process`. Both spans are emitted (they pass
+individual checks), but the parent-child relationship isn't established.
+
+**Investigation:**
+
+- Check `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/ServerHandler.cpp` — `rpc.request` (line 271) and
+ `rpc.process` (line 573) are in the same file. Verify that `rpc.process` is created
+ as a child of `rpc.request` (i.e., its parent context is set).
+- The issue may be that `rpc.process` creates a new root span instead of linking to the
+ `rpc.request` span context.
+
+**Files to modify:**
+
+- Possibly `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/ServerHandler.cpp` — fix span parenting
+- OR `docker/telemetry/workload/validate_telemetry.py` — if hierarchy check logic is wrong
+
+---
+
+## Category 4: Dashboard 404s (5 failures)
+
+**Symptoms:**
+
+```
+[FAIL] dashboard.rippled-statsd-node-health: HTTP 404
+[FAIL] dashboard.rippled-statsd-network: HTTP 404
+[FAIL] dashboard.rippled-statsd-rpc: HTTP 404
+[FAIL] dashboard.rippled-statsd-overlay-detail: HTTP 404
+[FAIL] dashboard.rippled-statsd-ledger-sync: HTTP 404
+```
+
+**Root Cause:** Dashboard UIDs were renamed from `rippled-statsd-*` to `rippled-system-*`
+but `expected_metrics.json` still references the old names.
+
+**Actual UIDs in `docker/telemetry/grafana/dashboards/`:**
+| Expected (in expected_metrics.json) | Actual (in dashboard JSON) |
+|-------------------------------------|-------------------------------|
+| `rippled-statsd-node-health` | `rippled-system-node-health` |
+| `rippled-statsd-network` | `rippled-system-network` |
+| `rippled-statsd-rpc` | `rippled-system-rpc` |
+| `rippled-statsd-overlay-detail` | `rippled-system-overlay-detail` |
+| `rippled-statsd-ledger-sync` | `rippled-system-ledger-sync` |
+
+**Fix:** Update the 5 UIDs in `expected_metrics.json` → `grafana_dashboards.uids[]`.
+
+**Files to modify:**
+
+- `docker/telemetry/workload/expected_metrics.json` — update dashboard UIDs
+
+---
+
+## Execution Order
+
+1. **Category 4 (Dashboard UIDs)** — trivial rename, no investigation needed
+2. **Category 1 (StatsD/OTLP metrics)** — requires investigation to choose Option A vs B
+ and capture actual metric names
+3. **Category 2 (Missing tx spans)** — requires investigation into transaction code paths
+4. **Category 3 (Span hierarchy)** — requires investigation into span context propagation
