**PROVEN (F-025)** — The SMTP rule is not optional where the host masquerades
containers onto a network carrying a mail relay. Without it the containers
inherit whatever relay authority the host's source address holds. The host's own
alerting is unaffected: it originates mail locally, so it takes OUTPUT and never
enters FORWARD. Prove that rather than assuming it.
**REQ** — Rule order is load-bearing. `RETURN` must precede both masquerades.
Rules must be persisted, and the persisted set verified to match the live set.

**REQ** — Do not over-commit a thin pool. Thin-pool exhaustion is an ugly
failure mode.
**PROVEN (F-026)** — Every container that must survive a host restart carries
`onboot: 1`. This is not the default. It is also invisible to `pct reboot`,
which restarts a guest without exercising host-boot autostart at all — so a
container proven to survive `pct reboot` is **not** thereby proven to survive a
host reboot.

**PROVEN** — Disk monitoring must be configured **explicitly per device** where
the controller does not present members to automatic scanning. An active
`smartmontools.service` monitoring zero devices is not monitoring, and is easy
to mistake for success. Acceptance is a delivered test alert, not an active
to mistake for success. Acceptance is a **delivered** test alert, not an active
unit.
Behind an HP Smart Array controller the working pattern is:
```
DEFAULT -a -m root -M exec /usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner
/dev/sda -d cciss,0
/dev/sda -d cciss,1
/dev/sda -d cciss,2
/dev/sda -d cciss,3
```
`-M test` proves the alert path — one message per monitored device — and must be
**reverted afterwards**. Left in place it produces an alert storm on every
restart, which trains everyone to ignore disk alerts. That is worse than no
monitoring.
**REQ (F-028)** — Query `smartmontools.service`, not `smartd.service`. The
latter is an alias and owns no journal; `journalctl -u smartd` returns nothing
on a host where monitoring is working perfectly.
**REQ** — Record each member's **serial number** at configuration time. That is
the only thing that maps a future alert to a physical drive in a caddy.

### 14.1 Test validity
**REQ (F-027)** — A test must be able to distinguish failure of the **tool**
from failure of the **thing under test**.
```bash
# WRONG — any failure of the wrapper reads as a pass
run_in_guest "$c" 'connect to X' && echo "reachable — WRONG" || echo "blocked — correct"
# RIGHT — establish that the test could have observed the positive case
if [ "$(guest_state "$c")" != "running" ]; then
echo "CT $c NOT RUNNING — TEST INVALID"
elif run_in_guest "$c" 'connect to X'; then
echo "reachable — WRONG"
else
echo "blocked — correct"
fi
```
This applies to **every negative assertion** — "X is unreachable", "Y is
absent", "Z is refused". A test whose failure mode is indistinguishable from
success is worse than no test, because it manufactures confidence. In WO-003 the
wrong form reported a pass against containers that were not running.
