### Stateful node without zone redundancy `stateful-node-without-zone-redundancy` (error)

- Page: https://localhost:3000/catalogue/rules/stateful-node-without-zone-redundancy.md
- Why: A stateful compute node pinned to exactly one availability zone disappears with that zone, and its state goes with it. Nodes inside a cell are exempt, because there the cell is deliberately single-zone and redundancy comes from the other cells.
- Applies to: every node in category compute
- Message: Stateful node '{{node.id}}' lives in exactly one availability zone. A zone outage takes its state with it.

It fires when:

- all of these hold:
  - the node's `stateless` is false
  - the node sits inside exactly 1 availability-zone group
  - this does not hold:
    - the node sits inside at least one cell group
