Josh Patterson 6abf382ea8 so-grid-highstate: wait for fleet recovery and quiet the expected salt-upgrade warning
Two refinements to the --salt-upgraded path, surfaced testing a salt downgrade+soup
on a manager+heavynode grid:

- The post-upgrade settle loop settled on any stable reachable count >0, so when a
  target was briefly down for its salt-minion restart it could settle on the
  not-yet-restarted subset (observed: 'settled at 1' with 2 accepted) and release the
  tiered pass before nodes reconnected. Capture the reachable count just before the
  pass and wait for it to recover to that count (up >= pre-upgrade target) and hold
  steady, with an initial grace so the delayed restart dip is observed rather than
  skipped. Still compares against the pre-upgrade reachable set, not accepted keys, so
  an intentionally powered-off node never stalls past the backstop.

- The salt-upgrade pass returns non-zero by design (targets restart salt-minion
  mid-run), but it logged the generic 'nodes it missed will converge on the scheduled
  highstate' warning, which reads like a real failure. Mark that dispatch as
  expect_restart so it logs a benign, explanatory line instead.

Verified live: with the heavynode's salt-minion bounced during the settle window, the
loop logged 'fleet recovered to 2 minions up (>= pre-upgrade 2)' and only then ran the
tiered pass (heavynode highstate 427 succeeded, 0 failed).

Josh Patterson 36833fdad1 so-grid-highstate: emit single-line pillar JSON and skip empty tiers
Two defects surfaced testing BRANCH=asasoup soup on a manager+heavynode grid:

1. The tiered-pass actions JSON was built from a multi-line heredoc. salt parses
   'pillar=<value>' kwargs with a non-DOTALL regex, so the embedded newlines made
   salt-run treat the whole token as a positional saltenv -- 'No matching salt
   environment for environment pillar={...}' -- and the highstate never ran, leaving
   the heavynode on the old version. Emit the actions JSON on a single line (matching
   how so-push-drainer's json.dumps payload already works).

2. orch.push_batch's salt.state step reports 'No minions returned' (a failure) for a
   tier whose compound target matches nothing, so any grid lacking a role (no receiver,
   small grids) always logged a warning and returned rc=1 even when every present node
   converged. Pre-check each tier with 'salt -C <tgt> --preview-target' and include only
   tiers that match >=1 minion; exit cleanly if none match.

Verified live: heavynode highstated 3.2.0 -> 3.3.0 (427 states, 0 failed) and a
follow-up run skips the empty receiver/remainder tiers with rc=0.

Josh Patterson d3da6b3939 soup: actively push a grid-wide highstate to remote minions after upgrade
The per-minion highstate schedule moved from 15 minutes to 120 minutes
(salt:schedule:highstate_interval_minutes), so after soup upgrades the manager,
non-manager minions could otherwise sit on the old version for up to ~2.5 hours
(interval + splay) before their scheduled highstate applies the new code.

Add so-grid-highstate, a detached best-effort driver soup fires at the end of an
upgrade. It uses the existing orch.push_batch runner to highstate the grid in
role tiers (searchnodes/heavynodes -> receivers -> the rest), skips single-node
grids, and when Salt itself was upgraded first runs an untiered pass and waits
for minions to reconnect on the new salt-minion before the tiered pass.

soup gains a push_grid_highstate() helper (guarded, launched via setsid nohup so
an SSH drop can't kill it) called on both the hotfix and full-upgrade paths,
wires the previously-dead -b flag through as --batch (now accepting N or N%),
and updates the distributed-deployment message to reflect the active push.

# so-grid-highstate
# =================
# Drives a batched, role-tiered highstate across every non-manager minion in the
# grid. soup fires this (detached) after it finishes upgrading the manager so the
# rest of the grid converges immediately instead of waiting for its own scheduled
# highstate -- which, since the schedule moved from 15 minutes to 120 minutes
# (salt:schedule:highstate_interval_minutes), could otherwise leave nodes on the
# old version for up to ~2.5 hours (interval + splay) while the manager runs new code.
#
# Work is done by the existing orch.push_batch orchestration (salt/orch/push_batch.sls),
# the same runner the active-push drainer uses, so batching/queueing behavior matches.
# Tiers are dispatched in declaration order: searchnodes/heavynodes (Elasticsearch data
# nodes) first, then receivers, then everything else -- so the data tier converges before
# the ingest tier before sensors/fleet/idh/etc.
#
# When soup also upgraded Salt itself, remote minions must first highstate onto the new
# salt-minion package (top.sls gates every real state on G@saltversion, so a stale-version
# minion only gets salt.minion until it upgrades and reconnects). --salt-upgraded runs that
# preliminary pass and waits for the fleet to settle before the tiered pass.
#
# This is best-effort: soup has already completed by the time this runs, and the 120-minute
# scheduled highstate remains the backstop for any node that is offline or missed a batch.

This appears to be a distributed deployment. Other nodes should update themselves at the next Salt highstate (typically within 15 minutes). Do not manually restart anything until you know that all the search/heavy nodes in your deployment are updated. This is especially important if you are using true clustering for Elasticsearch.
This appears to be a distributed deployment. soup has dispatched a batched, grid-wide highstate to update the other nodes now: Elasticsearch data nodes (search/heavy nodes) first, then receivers, then sensors and the remaining nodes. Progress is logged to /opt/so/log/salt/so-grid-highstate.log, and you can watch nodes update from the Grid section of SOC. Do not manually restart anything until you know that all the search/heavy nodes in your deployment are updated. This is especially important if you are using true clustering for Elasticsearch.
Each minion is on a random 15 minute check-in period and things like network bandwidth can be a factor in how long the actual upgrade takes. If you have a heavy node on a slow link, it is going to take a while to get the containers to it. Depending on what changes happened between the versions, Elasticsearch might not be able to talk to said heavy node until the update is complete.
Nodes are updated in batches, and things like network bandwidth can be a factor in how long the actual upgrade takes. If you have a heavy node on a slow link, it is going to take a while to get the containers to it. Depending on what changes happened between the versions, Elasticsearch might not be able to talk to said heavy node until the update is complete. Any node that is offline or missed a batch will converge on its own scheduled highstate (every 120 minutes by default).
If it looks like youre missing data after the upgrade, please avoid restarting services and instead make sure at least one search node has completed its upgrade. The best way to do this is to run 'sudo salt-call state.highstate' from a search node and make sure there are no errors. Typically if it works on one node it will work on the rest. Sensor nodes are less complex and will update as they check in so you can monitor those from the Grid section of SOC.
