This is already a no-subscription configuration, not a fresh-ISO Enterprise
before capture and not a captured before/after pair. It contains numeric
Enabled: 0/1, disabled Enterprise PVE/Ceph stanzas with
Options: [{"Key": "Enabled", "Values": ["false"]}, ...], and an enabled public
PVE stanza whose Enabled option is true. Signed-By options remain in the file.
The authentic-capture test verifies both plan/apply preserve paths without any
subscription lookup or API write. The attachment is stored byte-for-byte; tests
parse separate in-memory copies, never rewrite this evidence.
Generated scenarios (not captured host state)
RepositoryPolicyTest.simulated_enterprise_capture() in
tests/test_repository_preservation.py transforms an in-memory copy: removes the
public PVE file, enables Enterprise PVE/Ceph, removes their redundant Enabled
options, and labels the global digest simulated-enterprise-before. Remaining
capture metadata/file digests are only fixture input, not evidence of that
invented configuration. Tests optionally add a consistent Enabled=true option.
The fake API disables one targeted entry at a time, simulates numeric Enabled and Enabled-option insertion/update on readback, changes fixture digests, and adds a synthetic public PVE entry for the standard handle. This verifies policy behavior and retention of unrelated Signed-By options; it is not an observed live API transition or an authentic Enterprise-before capture. Additional edits simulate concurrent URI/suite/component/option/enabled changes and malformed/conflicting readback. They must stop before a second mutation and report partial/unknown state after the attempted write.
The PVE 8 .list cases and other hand-built inventories are explicitly synthetic.
No real Proxmox API command, package operation, or host source-file change is
executed by these tests. Fresh-ISO validation is still required separately.

The policy normalizes bool and integer 0/1 only, retaining the normalized Enabled field as authoritative. A single well-formed Enabled option is redundant only when consistent with that field. Other options and all unrelated repository fields remain part of semantic inventory comparison; per-file digests alone are excluded. Missing/empty Options and omitted/empty Components are semantically equivalent. Unknown or conflicting Enabled serialization fails closed.
