The Sync State panel only ever showed Connected and Full. Two causes:
1. state_tracking{metric="state_value"} is emitted with values 0-6, where
5 is FULL+validating and 6 is FULL+proposing, but the panel declared
max: 4 with value mappings for 0-4 only. Values above 4 were pinned to
the axis ceiling and rendered unmapped. Most nodes sit at 6, so the
majority of series were clipped.
2. The gauge samples the instantaneous mode on a 10s export tick, so
states shorter than one tick fall between samples. A real sync showed
SYNCING for a single scrape and skipped TRACKING entirely. This is the
sampling hazard already noted on StateAccounting in NetworkOPs.h.
Extend the panel domain to 0-6 with Validating and Proposing mappings and
matching threshold steps, and add a colour-coded state-timeline panel where
each band's width is the time spent in that state, so brief states appear
as thin slivers rather than disappearing. The timeline reads
server_info{metric="server_state"} (raw OperatingMode 0-4) rather than
state_value, which folds 5 and 6 onto FULL and would split one Full band
into three colours.
Panel layout below the insertion point shifts down by 6 rows.
Note this makes short states legible, not lossless: exporting
StateAccounting's per-state duration accumulators is the sampling-immune
fix and is left as follow-up.

nudb_bytes was documented as a NuDB file size, one place even claiming a
filesystem stat. It observes Database::getStoreSize(), which sums the object
payloads this process has written. It excludes NuDB's keys, bucket padding and
log, and resets with the process. node_written_bytes calls the same accessor, so
the two series are equal by construction and a write-amplification ratio built
from them is a constant 1.0. Neither Backend nor Database exposes a file-size
accessor, so nothing reports on-disk size today.
The Ledger Data & Sync panel plotting node_reads_hit / node_reads_total was
titled "NuDB Cache Hit Ratio" and described as reads served from cache.
fetchHitCount_ increments whenever a fetch returned an object, whatever served
it, so the ratio is a found rate. It reads near 100% while every fetch goes to
disk, which made the cold-read failure mode look impossible. Renamed to
"NuDB Read Found Ratio" and rewrote the guidance to pair it with read latency.

Both files use telemetry::consensus::span::* but reached the declarations
only transitively, which misc-include-cleaner rejects. Add the direct
include now that the header lives under xrpl/consensus/.
clang-tidy had been skipped on this branch while CMake configure was
failing, so these findings in makeStageSpan surfaced only now:
- brace the three single-statement if bodies (readability-braces-around-statements)
- compare the pointer parameter explicitly against nullptr
(readability-implicit-bool-conversion)
- include xrpl/protocol/Protocol.h for LedgerIndex (misc-include-cleaner)
The consensus headers moved into the isolated xrpl/consensus module and
took a dependency on xrpl/telemetry for the tracing span constants, but
two things were left behind:
- Four includes still pointed at the old src/xrpld/consensus/ location,
which no longer exists, so the build failed with
"fatal error: 'xrpld/consensus/ConsensusParms.h' file not found".
- xrpl.libxrpl.consensus never linked xrpl.libxrpl.telemetry. add_module
isolates each module's headers, so xrpl/telemetry/SpanNames.h was not
on the include path even once the include was repointed.
Repoint the stale includes at xrpl/consensus/, and declare the telemetry
module before consensus so consensus can link it. Regenerate ordering.txt
for the resulting edge.
The phase-2 merge re-added the pre-telemetry `add_module(xrpl tx)` block
without removing it, leaving the module declared twice. CMake's
add_library rejects a repeated target name, so configure failed before
any compilation:
add_library cannot create target "xrpl.libxrpl.tx" because another
target with the same name already exists.
Drop the stale pre-telemetry block and keep the one that follows
add_module(xrpl telemetry), which links both ledger and telemetry.
libxrpl/tx needs the telemetry link for the tx.transactor span, and
levelization already records `libxrpl.tx > xrpl.telemetry`.

Resolved OpenTelemetryPlan/09-data-collection-reference.md: this branch
replaced the StatsD-shaped Section 2 with OTel-native naming, so the
incoming StatsD tables and the StatsD per-job timer section do not apply
here. Kept this branch's names throughout.
The incoming per-job-type saturation gauge section is new content and is
retained, renumbered to 2.5 and rewritten for the OTel naming: bare
lowercase `jobq_<jobtype>_{waiting,running,deferred}` derived through
OTelCollector rather than the case-preserving `xrpld_`-prefixed StatsD
form.

Add reference entries for the observability surface introduced on
phase-9: the `handler` label on the job instruments, the five
`getobject_*` request metrics, and the per-job-type queue saturation
gauges.
Names here follow this branch's StatsD pipeline, which preserves case
and carries the `xrpld_` prefix, so they differ from the lowercased
OTel-native names used from phase-7 onward. The sections state where
the implementing code lives, since it is introduced downstream.
Also correct pre-existing entries: `job_count` exports as
`jobq_job_count` via the collector group prefix, the non-special job
type count is 35 (not 36), and `JtLedgerData` has five producers.

Match the panel height the operator settled on in Grafana (18 rows) so
all 20 ranked bars render without an inner scrollbar, and reflow the
Sync Diagnostics row and the panels below it accordingly.
The bar labels on 'Overlay Traffic Heatmap (All Categories, Bytes In)'
were raw metric names carrying a redundant '_bytes_in' suffix, and the
half-width 8-row panel truncated both the category and the node
identity.
- Strip the '_bytes_in' suffix from the derived series label; the panel
title already states the metric is inbound bytes.
- Widen the panel to full width and grow it to 12 rows so 20 bars render
with their full category and node labels.
- Shift the Sync Diagnostics row and the panels below it down by 4 to
keep the layout gap-free.
- Note the label derivation in the panel description.
The four aggregated Sync Diagnostics panels grouped by xrpl_work_item,
which no layer in this repo emits (it is injected by the perf-iac
harness). That tripped Rule D of the telemetry naming check:
D ledger-data-sync.json xrpl_work_item
must exist in L1, a metric label, or be a builtin
Align with the convention used by every other aggregated panel in the
dashboard set: group by (service_instance_id, xrpl_branch,
xrpl_node_role) and leave the xrpl_ident label_join untouched. The
legend is unaffected -- label_join over a label dropped by the
aggregation contributes an empty segment, which the trailing
label_replace already strips.
Verified live: both the NuDB ratio and the job-queue p95 queries still
return per-node series rendering as "[aws-dev-xrpl-1]".
The 0-4 values now render as named states via value mappings, so the numeric
axis label is misleading. Rename to "Server State".

Add value mappings (0 Disconnected, 1 Connected, 2 Syncing, 3 Tracking,
4 Full) and matching red->green thresholds to the Sync State panel, so the
line, tooltip, and legend render state names and colors instead of bare 0-4.
Keeps the minimal custom-key convention; only the Sync State panel changes.

Rework the 10 Sync Diagnostics panels' legends to match the format used by the
existing panels: wrap each query in label_join + label_replace to build the
xrpl_ident label ([service_instance_id, xrpl_branch, xrpl_work_item] with empty
values stripped) and set displayName to "${series} ${xrpl_ident}". Verified
against a live node: renders as "Series [aws-dev-xrpl-1]" with no empty-label
gaps, identical mechanism to the original 15 panels. Only the new panels change.

Add a 10-panel "Sync Diagnostics" row that shows ledger-sync slowdown and its
causes, laid out top-to-bottom as symptom -> latency -> root cause:
- Red flags: Sync State, Validated Ledger Age, Ledger Close Rate
- Latency: Job Queue Wait p95 by type, NuDB Read Latency, I/O Scheduler p95
- Root cause: NuDB Cache Hit Ratio, NuDB Read Pressure, Job Queue Depth,
Load Factor & Peers
All panels use native beast::insight metrics introduced on this branch
(nodestore_state, ledgermaster_*, jobq_*_q, ios_latency, load_factor_metrics,
peer_finder_*) plus the consensus.mode_change span metric. Queries filter by
the dashboard's $node and tier variables and were verified against a live
node. Nodestore ratio panels use sum-by(identity) matching to bridge the
metric= sub-label.
Format matches the dashboard convention: minimal custom keys, ${DS_PROMETHEUS}
datasource uid, and the standard What/How/Reading/Healthy/Watch/Source/Function
description structure. Pure-append; existing panels untouched.

Document the two new ledger-correlation attributes in the data-collection
reference: add them to the transaction and TxQ attribute tables (with per-span
coverage), update the attribute count, and correct the txq.enqueue parent note
(parents to tx.process on the submission path via explicit context; a root on
the open-ledger rebuild path, correlated via current_ledger_seq).

Add current_ledger_seq / current_ledger_hash to the tx.process, tx.receive,
and txq.enqueue span-reference rows, correct the txq.enqueue parent note
(parents to tx.process on the submission path via explicit context; a root on
the open-ledger rebuild path), and add a "Correlating a transaction to the
ledger it was worked on" recipe joining the txID-keyed tx/txq spans to the
ledger trace via current_ledger_seq.
