Keep the in-place RestoreJob name consistent.
35-restorejob-in-place.yaml creates pg-src-in-place, but run-all.sh waits for and cleanup.sh deletes the overridable value. If a caller sets RESTOREJOB_INPLACE_NAME, the workflow times out and cleanup leaves the actual RestoreJob. Render the manifest name from this variable or make the variable fixed.

LGTM with a few non-blocking notes.
The fix is correct and well-scoped. I traced the data flow end to end and ran the suites locally: the WAL archiver writes under bootstrap.newServerName | default .Release.Name while recovery still reads bootstrap.serverName | oldName, so a restored cluster archives to a fresh prefix and barman-cloud-check-wal-archive passes even on an in-place restore. restoredServerName is deterministic per RestoreJob UID and stable across reconciles, and backward compatibility holds (empty newServerName falls back to the release name). go test ./internal/backupcontroller/... for the new cases and helm unittest (33/33, including the new in-place case) both pass, and the generated api types, the cozyrds openAPISchema blob, and the README are all regenerated consistently.
Inline notes below are non-blocking: one scoping question about the platform (useSystemBucket=true) restore path, plus two small defensive suggestions. None of them block the merge.

The newServerName plumbing only reaches this $renderBarman block, which is gated on useSystemBucket=false. Nothing in the Go restore path references useSystemBucket, and buildPostgresAppRestorePatch does not touch it, so the fix is wired into the legacy manual-creds chart flow only. The PR description says the platform useSystemBucket=true flow already avoids the collision because it archives under <namespace>-<app>. Could you confirm that holds specifically for an in-place restore, where the recovery source prefix equals the target's own prefix? Not a regression here (the reachable bug is fixed), but if system-bucket restores get wired up later, the same Expected empty archive collision would resurface untouched by this fix.

Confirmed, and now covered rather than just avoided. Two parts: (1) even unmodified, the cozy-default (useSystemBucket) flow cannot hit this on an in-place restore — its archive serverName is <namespace>-<app> while the archiver plugin's is the release name postgres-<app>, so the write prefix never equals the recovery source; I verified this live on a v1.6.2 cluster (an in-place cozy-default restore re-bootstraps to a healthy cluster with the sentinel intact). (2) A follow-up commit on this PR now clears backup.useSystemBucket in buildPostgresAppRestorePatch, so a restored system-bucket app is switched onto the explicit-creds path and rendered through this same $renderBarman block — newServerName therefore applies to system-bucket restores too, not just the legacy flow. That commit was needed for a separate reason: an in-place restore of a useSystemBucket app previously left useSystemBucket=true alongside bootstrap.enabled and tripped the chart's incompatibility guard, wedging the HelmRelease. So the system-bucket in-place path is now both wired up and collision-safe.

Minor/defensive: this truncates the digest to 32 bits and never asserts the result differs from sourceServerName. Collision odds are negligible in practice, but if two RestoreJob UIDs ever collide on the same target (or a fresh prefix lands on an earlier restore's abandoned one), CNPG fails again with Expected empty archive and nothing in the code or logs points at a hash collision as the cause. A cheap if newServerName == sourceServerName guard with a log line would make that class of recurrence diagnosable.

Done. Widened the digest from 32 to 64 bits ([:16]) so two RestoreJob UIDs colliding on the same cluster is no longer a practical concern, and added a defensive guard at the call site: when the generated newServerName equals sourceServerName it logs "restored WAL-archive serverName collided with the recovery source" before proceeding, so a recurrence surfaces as a diagnosable hash collision rather than a bare "Expected empty archive" from CNPG.

The CNPG backup driver sets this on restore; empty means the cluster archives under its own name. | ||

Info: newServerName is a plain tenant-writable field, same exposure class as the sibling serverName/oldName, so nothing new. But unlike storageClass in this same file (which carries an XValidation CEL rule), there is no rule stopping a tenant from setting newServerName == serverName by hand and reproducing exactly the failure this field exists to prevent. Since you are adding a field whose whole contract is must differ from serverName, a CEL rule enforcing that would be a natural fit.

Agree it's a natural fit, but it isn't expressible through the schema tooling today, so I'm deferring it. newServerName is driver-managed on restore, the same exposure class as its siblings serverName/oldName — none of which carry a CEL guard, and hand-authoring bootstrap.* is already outside the supported RestoreJob flow. More concretely: cozyvalues-gen only emits single-field validations (the @immutable annotation → self == oldSelf, as on storageClass); it has no cross-field CEL annotation, so a self.newServerName == "" || self.newServerName != self.serverName rule can't be generated, and hand-editing the emitted values.schema.json / cozyrds openAPISchema would be clobbered by make generate. So this would need a generator change first; happy to follow up there separately if we want the guard.
An in-place RestoreJob (targetApplicationRef omitted) re-bootstraps the
Postgres app under its own name. On stock v1.6.2 it never comes back up,
for two independent reasons in the same restore patch - both surface only
in place, because a to-copy restore targets a different app.
1. Archive-vs-recovery serverName collision. The driver set the restored
cluster's WAL-archive serverName equal to the recovery source
(bootstrap.serverName = bootstrap.oldName = sourceServerName) while the
chart pinned the archiver serverName to the release name. In place those
coincide, so the cluster archived onto the source's own WAL prefix and
barman-cloud-check-wal-archive refused to start ("Expected empty
archive"). Fixed by giving the restored cluster a fresh
bootstrap.newServerName, keyed by the RestoreJob UID (unique per
restore, stable across reconciles); the chart archives there while
externalClusters still recovers from bootstrap.serverName. This is what
the manual CNPG strategies hit (serverName defaults to the cluster
name); the cozy-default flow dodged it (serverName is <ns>-<app>).
2. useSystemBucket guard. The restore populates explicit S3 coordinates
(destinationPath / s3CredentialsSecret / endpointCA) but left
backup.useSystemBucket=true, so the chart's "bootstrap.enabled is
incompatible with useSystemBucket" guard failed the HelmRelease upgrade
and the cluster never re-rendered. This is what the cozy-default
(system-bucket) flow hits on an in-place restore. Fixed by clearing
useSystemBucket in the restore patch, since the app is now on the
explicit-creds path. The driver's app view (postgresapp.Backup) gains
the field, without omitempty so a false survives the merge patch.
Both are exercised only by an in-place restore; the postgres backup e2e
drove only to-copy, so neither surfaced in CI. A step 50 in-place restore
now guards reason 1 (manual-strategy flow); reason 2 is covered by a Go
unit assertion (a system-bucket in-place e2e needs the platform bucket in
CI and is left as a follow-up).

Fix looks correct. Restored cluster reads WAL from source prefix and archives to new one, system bucket restore switches to explicit credentials before chart render. In-place restore e2e and focused controller/helm tests pass, generated files are up to date.

This is a bug in released v1.6.2 (chart and driver are byte-identical on
main), so it is a backport candidate.Screenshots
Not applicable (no UI changes).
Downstream repositories
The only externally visible schema surface is one new field,
spec.bootstrap.newServerName, in the postgresvalues.schema.json/ CRD; it is set by the CNPG backup driver on restore and never authored by tenants, exactly like the existingbootstrap.serverName/bootstrap.oldName. (TheuseSystemBucketclearing is internal to the Go driver —backup.useSystemBucketalready exists in the schema.) The chartREADME.mdis regenerated fromvalues.yamlautomatically by the website docs bot on release, andterraform-provider-cozystackmodels user-authored spec (its guard tracks top-level fields, not driver-set nested ones), so neither needs a change in practice. Leaving every box unticked per the trigger-map guidance so a maintainer confirms rather than acting on a speculative follow-up.Release note
