- LiveSync does not open the pane merely because Obsidian has started. If the pane was already part of the saved Obsidian workspace, Obsidian may restore it.
- Workspaces containing the retired P2P pane are migrated to the current status pane. The retired command is no longer exposed.
The active P2P remote is selected independently from the main CouchDB or Object Storage remote. Devices can therefore use P2P as an additional transport without replacing their main remote.

## Operational limits
- At least one device which already has the required data must be online while another device fetches it.
- P2P does not provide the continuously available central copy offered by CouchDB or Object Storage. Keep independent backups.
- Mobile operating systems may pause Obsidian in the background. Keep Obsidian visible and the device awake during initial transfer, rebuild, or a large finite synchronisation.

- Changing from CouchDB to P2P is not a repair operation for a stopped CouchDB setup. Diagnose the existing transport first.
