# DBIS Hyperledger Runtime Status

**Last Reviewed:** 2026-04-05  
**Purpose:** Concise app-level status table for the non-Besu Hyperledger footprint currently hosted on Proxmox. This complements the VMID inventory and discovery runbooks by recording what was actually verified inside the running containers.

## Scope

This document summarizes the latest operator verification for:

- Cacti CTs: `5200`, `5201`, `5202`
- FireFly CTs: `6200`, `6201`
- Fabric CTs: `6000`, `6001`, `6002`
- Indy CTs: `6400`, `6401`, `6402`
- Aries / AnonCreds CT: `6500`
- Caliper CT: `6600`

The checks were based on:

- `pct status`
- in-container process checks
- in-container listener checks
- FireFly API / Postgres / IPFS checks where applicable
- ACA-Py admin API and container-inspection checks where applicable
- Caliper CLI / bind / RPC reachability checks where applicable

## Current status table

| VMID | Service family | CT status | App-level status | Listening ports / probe | Notes |
|------|----------------|-----------|------------------|--------------------------|-------|
| `5200` | Cacti primary | Running | Healthy Besu connector gateway | `4000/tcp` Cacti API, `5000/tcp` local gRPC sidecar | Reworked from the stale two-container template into a live `ghcr.io/hyperledger/cactus-connector-besu:2024-07-04-8c030ae` runtime; container health is `healthy`; `GET /api/v1/api-server/healthcheck` returned `200`; Besu connector plugin loaded against `http://192.168.11.211:8545` / `ws://192.168.11.211:8546` |
| `5201` | Cacti secondary | Running | Healthy public Cacti surface | `80/tcp` landing page, `4000/tcp` local Cacti API | `GET /` returned `200`; `GET /api/v1/api-server/healthcheck` returned `200`; intended public surface for `cacti-alltra.d-bis.org` with the local Hyperledger Cacti API kept healthy behind it. |
| `5202` | Cacti tertiary | Running | Healthy public Cacti surface | `80/tcp` landing page, `4000/tcp` local Cacti API | Same disposition as `5201`, but for `cacti-hybx.d-bis.org`; both the web landing page and the local Cacti API are healthy. |
| `6200` | FireFly primary | Running | Healthy minimal local gateway | `5000/tcp` FireFly API, `5432/tcp` Postgres, `5001/tcp` IPFS | `firefly-core` is healthy on `ghcr.io/hyperledger/firefly:v1.2.0`; `GET /api/v1/status` returned `200`; Postgres `pg_isready` passed; IPFS version probe passed. On 2026-04-05 the CT was reconciled into an idempotent mixed stack: compose now manages Postgres/IPFS, a helper-backed `firefly.service` treats the existing legacy `firefly-core` container as canonical instead of trying to recreate it, and all three containers use `restart=unless-stopped`. |
| `6201` | FireFly secondary | Stopped | Formally retired until rebuilt | None verified | CT exists in inventory, but the rootfs is effectively empty and no valid FireFly deployment footprint was found. Treat this as retired / standby metadata only until it is intentionally rebuilt as a real secondary node. |
| `6000` | Fabric primary | Running | Operational sample network | `7050/tcp` orderer, `7051/tcp` org1 peer, `9051/tcp` org2 peer, `9443` / `9444` / `9445` operations ports | Official `fabric-samples` payload staged under `/opt/fabric`; the sample network was restored and reverified on 2026-04-05; `orderer.example.com`, `peer0.org1.example.com`, and `peer0.org2.example.com` are running again; `peer channel getinfo -c mychannel` now returns height `1`. Nested LXC requires `features: nesting=1,keyctl=1`, and `fabric-sample-network.service` is now installed to re-ensure the sample network after CT restarts. |
| `6001` | Fabric secondary | Stopped | Reserved placeholder | None active | Same disposition as `6000`: no proven Fabric application payload or listeners, now stopped and reserved only as placeholder inventory. |
| `6002` | Fabric tertiary | Stopped | Reserved placeholder | None active | Same disposition as `6000`: no proven Fabric application payload or listeners, now stopped and reserved only as placeholder inventory. |
| `6400` | Indy primary | Running | Healthy four-node local validator pool | `9701`-`9708/tcp` validator and client listeners | `hyperledgerlabs/indy-node:latest` now runs `indy-node-1` through `indy-node-4` under `/opt/indy/docker-compose.yml`; `systemctl is-active indy` returned `active` and `systemctl is-enabled indy` returned `enabled`; all expected `start_indy_node` listeners are bound on `0.0.0.0`. |
| `6401` | Indy secondary | Stopped | Reserved placeholder | None active | Same disposition as `6400`: no proven Indy application payload or listeners, now stopped and reserved only as placeholder inventory. |
| `6402` | Indy tertiary | Stopped | Reserved placeholder | None active | Same disposition as `6400`: no proven Indy application payload or listeners, now stopped and reserved only as placeholder inventory. |
| `6500` | Aries / AnonCreds primary | Running | Healthy ACA-Py agent on the `askar-anoncreds` wallet path | `8030/tcp` DIDComm endpoint, `8031/tcp` admin API | `acapy-agent` is running from `ghcr.io/openwallet-foundation/acapy-agent:py3.12-1.3-lts`; `GET /status/live` returned `{"alive": true}`; `docker inspect` confirms `--wallet-type askar-anoncreds`, `--endpoint http://192.168.11.88:8030`, and a real Indy genesis file mounted from the `6400` pool artifacts. |
| `6600` | Caliper primary | Running | Operational benchmark workspace | No inbound app port required; `npx caliper --version` returned `0.6.0` | `/opt/caliper/workspace` contains an upstream Caliper CLI install, `npx caliper bind --caliper-bind-sut besu:1.4` succeeded, `npm ls` confirms `@hyperledger/caliper-cli@0.6.0` and `web3@1.3.0`, and RPC reachability to `http://192.168.11.211:8545` was verified with `eth_blockNumber`. |

## Interpretation

### Confirmed working now

- Cacti primary (`5200`) is live as a local Cacti API with the Besu connector plugin loaded and healthy.
- Cacti public surfaces (`5201` and `5202`) are live as landing pages plus local Hyperledger Cacti APIs for the Alltra and HYBX edges.
- FireFly primary (`6200`) is restored enough to provide a working local FireFly API backed by Postgres and IPFS.
- Fabric primary (`6000`) now runs a verified official sample network with one orderer and two peers joined to `mychannel`.
- Indy primary (`6400`) now runs a verified four-node local validator pool with all expected node and client listeners active.
- Aries / AnonCreds primary (`6500`) now runs a verified ACA-Py agent with the `askar-anoncreds` wallet type against the local Indy genesis.
- Caliper primary (`6600`) now hosts a verified upstream Caliper workspace with the Besu `1.4` binding installed and Chain 138 RPC reachability confirmed.

### Present only as reserved placeholders right now

- Fabric CTs (`6001`-`6002`)
- Indy CTs (`6401`-`6402`)

These should be described as reserved placeholder inventory only. The primaries `6000` and `6400` are now active application nodes, while the secondary and tertiary CTs remain inactive inventory.

### Not currently active

- FireFly secondary (`6201`) should be treated as formally retired / standby metadata unless it is intentionally rebuilt and verified.

## Operational follow-up

1. Keep `5200`, `5201`, `5202`, `6000`, `6200`, and `6400` under observation and preserve their working images, config paths, and nested-Docker allowances.
2. Use `scripts/maintenance/ensure-fabric-sample-network-via-ssh.sh` when the Fabric sample network on `6000` drifts back to stopped peer/orderer containers or after unit-level changes.
3. Use `scripts/maintenance/ensure-firefly-primary-via-ssh.sh` when `6200` shows a failed `firefly.service` state, a compose-version mismatch, or drift between the compose-managed dependencies and the existing `firefly-core` container.
4. Keep `6500` and `6600` under observation as primaries for identity-agent and benchmark-harness work, and preserve the Indy genesis handoff plus the Caliper workspace state.
5. Do not force `6201`, `6001`, `6002`, `6401`, or `6402` online unless their intended roles and deployment assets are re-established from scratch.
6. Any governance or architecture document should distinguish:
   - `deployed and app-healthy`
   - `container present only`
   - `planned / aspirational`
