Production case: bay 3207 had ArchivedData\ on the share with full
production records but no CurrentData.json at the bay root. The previous
Restore logic treated CurrentData.json as the marker for "valid backup"
and exited early when absent, so the script silently no-op'd every cycle
even though there was real archive data ready to restore.
Asymmetric with Backup-UDCData.ps1, which already handles missing
CurrentData.json gracefully (it copies whatever exists). Possible causes
of CurrentData.json absence in a backup: source PC had no live UDC
session at backup time (UDC inactive / not recording), backup partially
failed for that one file (no Backup-side log to confirm without rerun).
Either way, an ArchivedData-only backup is still a valid backup.
Behavior change:
- Early-exit only when BOTH CurrentData.json AND ArchivedData\ are
absent. Otherwise proceed with whatever exists.
- Copy step for CurrentData.json wrapped in srcCurExists guard.
- consumeOk now requires: every present source successfully copied,
AND at least one thing was actually copied.
- Move-to-migrated wraps CurrentData.json move in Test-Path guard
(was already guarded for ArchivedData).
- restore.manifest.json gains CurrentDataPresent and ArchivedDataPresent
booleans so future audits can see which side actually restored.
- UDC relaunch now fires when EITHER copy succeeded (was only on
CurrentData.json copy).
Verbose logs now distinguish three cases at the early-exit:
- Both absent: "no work to do this cycle" (the 99% path)
- Only ArchivedData\: WARN with explanation, proceed
- Only CurrentData.json: WARN with explanation, proceed

Two production-debuggability gaps closed.
1. Logging is now always-on. The previous version exited silently on the
common no-op paths (no UDC installed, no backup waiting, share not
reachable), leaving zero log evidence when techs reported "restore
didn't happen". New behavior writes a header + identity + share-path
+ decision-point line to a single rotating log file every cycle.
Errors include exception type, position, and full ScriptStackTrace.
Log lives at C:\Logs\UDC\Restore-UDCData.log with a 1 MB cap and
one-generation rotation to .old.log.
2. Share-reachability is now polled instead of probed once. The SFLD
share over the SMB redirector takes 20-60 s to become reachable
from SYSTEM context after a cold logon, especially on the first
GE-Enforce cycle of the boot. The old single Test-Path returned
false in that window and the script silently exited, missing the
backup. New behavior polls Test-Path on the share root every 3 s
for up to 60 s (both tunable via -ShareTimeoutSec / -SharePollSec)
before deciding "no backup". If the share never comes up in that
window the script exits 1 instead of 0 so the dispatcher logs a
visible failure.
Both behaviors propagated to the host staging copy at
/home/camp/pxe-images/Restore-UDCData.ps1 and to the v2 share-staged
copy at tsgwp00525-v2/.../standard-machine/scripts/Restore-UDCData.ps1.

UDC's per-bay archive directory is C:\ProgramData\UDC\ArchivedData, not
ArchiveData. The previous spelling was a typo introduced when the scripts
were first written; it would have meant Backup-UDCData.ps1 found no archive
content (silent zero-file backups), and Restore-UDCData.ps1 wrote into a
location UDC does not read from.
Path swap is straight string replacement across both scripts plus the .bat
wrapper's usage comment. Manifest field names in backup.manifest.json /
restore.manifest.json (ArchivedDataPresent, ArchivedDataFiles,
ArchivedDataBytes) updated to match.
Update-MachineNumber.ps1's parallel UDC-restore branch (still uncommitted
in a prior workstream) has the same fix in the working tree, captured in
that branch's eventual commit.
The v2 share-staged copy at tsgwp00525-v2\standard-machine\scripts\
Restore-UDCData.ps1 also got the fix and is ready for push.

Backup-UDCData.bat / Backup-UDCData.ps1: tech-runnable, UAC-self-elevating.
Run on the OLD PC before retirement; reads bay number from
udc_settings.json, copies CurrentData.json + ArchiveData/ to
\\tsgwp00525\...\backup\udc\<bay>\, drops backup.manifest.json. Refuses
the 9999 placeholder so backups never collide across PCs.
Restore-UDCData.ps1: idempotent, designed for the manifest engine. 99%
of cycles silent no-op (sub-second, zero side effects); 1% (cycle after
a backup lands at this PC's bay) restores files locally, moves consumed
backup to <bay>\migrated\<timestamp>\, writes restore.manifest.json,
relaunches UDC. Round-trip + no-op fast path verified end-to-end on the
win11 analyzer VM. Already wired into the Standard-Machine GE-Enforce
manifest at standard-machine\manifest.json on the v2 share.
Complementary to the placeholder-to-real branch in Update-MachineNumber.ps1:
that branch covers the 9999 -> real flow, this one covers the
pre-imaged-then-swapped flow where Update-MachineNumber already ran
before any backup existed. Both safely no-op if the other consumed.
