📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR reorganizes documentation structure by moving the Kubernetes shadowing monitoring content from the monitoring section to the shadowing section. The file modules/manage/pages/kubernetes/monitoring/k-monitor-shadowing.adoc is relocated to modules/manage/pages/kubernetes/shadowing/k-monitor-shadowing.adoc, with all cross-references updated accordingly across navigation, release notes, and related documentation pages. The relocated content includes minor text formatting adjustments for capitalization consistency in status indicators and descriptive labels.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 2 (Simple) | ⏱️ ~10–15 minutes

• This is a straightforward documentation reorganization with consistent cross-reference updates applied uniformly across multiple files
• Review focus: verify all cross-references have been correctly updated to point to the new shadowing path, and confirm no references to the old monitoring path remain broken

Timestamp: 2025-08-25T21:00:26.626Z
Learning: In cloud documentation (env-cloud), Security is at the top level navigation, so ACL references should use `security:authorization/rbac/acl.adoc`. In self-managed documentation, Security is nested under Manage, so ACL references use `manage:security/authorization/acl.adoc`. The different xref paths in conditional blocks reflect these different navigation structures.

Learning: In Redpanda ShadowLink CRD usage, do not copy CA certificates into pods via kubectl cp because they won't persist across pod restarts. Store CA certs in Kubernetes Secrets and reference them in the ShadowLink's staticConfiguration block (or inline the cert data in that block) to ensure persistence and proper secret management.

Learning: In the Redpanda documentation, topic property cross-references like <<max.compaction.lag.ms>> and <<min.compaction.lag.ms>> require corresponding property definition sections with anchors like [[maxcompactionlagms]] and [[mincompactionlagms]] to prevent broken links.

🔇 Additional comments (6)

modules/manage/pages/kubernetes/shadowing/k-monitor-shadowing.adoc (2)

36-36: Wording improvement for clarity.

The update from "SYNCED is False" to "synced status is False" makes the sentence more natural and aligns with the normalized status indicator capitalization throughout the document.

---

150-152: Consistent status indicator capitalization improves readability.

The changes from uppercase state names (STATE: ACTIVE, Tasks: ACTIVE, LAG) to normalized camelCase (State: active, Tasks: active, Lag) enhance consistency and align with the Kubernetes Operator output format shown in the examples above (lines 59, 62, 64, 66).

modules/ROOT/nav.adoc (1)

141-141: Correct xref path update for new shadowing location.

The navigation entry now correctly points to manage:kubernetes/shadowing/k-monitor-shadowing.adoc. The placement under the Shadowing section is logical, consolidating Kubernetes-specific shadowing documentation in one location.

modules/manage/pages/disaster-recovery/shadowing/monitor.adoc (1)

17-17: Correct xref update for Kubernetes-specific monitoring link.

The reference to Kubernetes shadowing monitoring is now correctly updated to point to the new location. The cross-reference directs users from general shadowing monitoring to Kubernetes-specific procedures, which is the intended documentation flow.

modules/manage/pages/kubernetes/monitoring/k-monitor-redpanda.adoc (1)

20-20: Correct xref path for shadow link monitoring reference.

The suggested reading link to shadow link monitoring is now correctly updated to point to the new Kubernetes shadowing location. The cross-reference is appropriately placed as a related document for users monitoring Redpanda in Kubernetes.

modules/get-started/pages/release-notes/operator.adoc (1)

25-25: Correct xref path in release notes for shadowing monitoring.

The monitoring reference is now correctly updated to point to the new Kubernetes shadowing location. The documentation flow is logical, guiding users from setup to monitoring documentation for the ShadowLink feature.
