# Controller A first power-cut attempt disposition

Status: invalid physical attempt; retained as pre-cut hold evidence only
Type: evidence
Updated: 2026-07-23
Next Action: repeat on commit 548aabc3 with J-Link 69664082 physically disconnected before external power removal
Campaign Reason: Historical record from campaign 013-close-hpt-media-2-initial-release-qualification; retained independently after campaign closure and requires no separate owner-queue execution.
Campaign: standalone

## Disposition

The pre-cut capture and manifest prove that the firmware reached the requested
data-durable-before-commit hold. They do not prove a physical power cut or
power-loss recovery.

J-Link `69664082` remained electrically connected to Controller A when the
external supply was removed. On this bench the probe back-powers the
controller, so the controller was not electrically isolated and the attempted
external-supply interruption is invalid.

Do not use this directory to claim:

- a true controller-off interval;
- loss of volatile RAM state;
- cold boot;
- physical power-loss recovery; or
- completion of the data-durable power-cut qualification.

The repeat must keep external power on through arm/capture, physically
disconnect J-Link, remove and restore external power with J-Link disconnected,
allow normal boot, and reconnect J-Link only for post-boot inspection.
