A live backup drill on test-one failed: 'tar walk: open
/world/world/level.dat: permission denied'. The world volume belongs to
the game image's own UID (root for every Paper image we ship), and Paper
saves level.dat mode 0600 — a fixed uid-1000 executor can neither read
it (backup/reaper archive) nor overwrite it (restore). The same identity
silently broke on-demand backups, restores, and the reaper for every
server that had saved once.
Run the backup Job, restore Job, file Job, and the reaper pod as root
with DAC_OVERRIDE on top of drop-ALL — the same owner-matching precedent
as the operator's forwarding-init container; DAC_OVERRIDE extends it to
game images whose UID is neither root nor ours. FSGroup is omitted when
zero so a root executor never chgrps the world volume. Shape tests
updated for the new identity.
