+## ADL-042 — xFusion file-export archives merge AppDump inventory with RTOS/Log snapshots
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-04
+**Context:** xFusion iBMC `tar.gz` exports expose the base inventory in `AppDump/`, but the most
+useful NIC and firmware details live elsewhere: NIC firmware/MAC snapshots in
+`LogDump/netcard/netcard_info.txt` and system firmware versions in
+`RTOSDump/versioninfo/app_revision.txt`. Parsing only `AppDump/` left xFusion uploads detectable but
+incomplete for UI and Reanimator consumers.
+
+**Decision:**
+- Treat xFusion file-export `tar.gz` bundles as a first-class archive parser input.
+- Merge OCP NIC identity from `AppDump/card_manage/card_info` with the latest per-slot snapshot
+  from `LogDump/netcard/netcard_info.txt` to produce `hardware.network_adapters`.
+- Import system-level firmware from `RTOSDump/versioninfo/app_revision.txt` into
+  `hardware.firmware`.
+- Allow FRU fallback from `RTOSDump/versioninfo/fruinfo.txt` when `AppDump/FruData/fruinfo.txt`
+  is absent.
+
+**Consequences:**
+- xFusion uploads now preserve NIC BDF, MAC, firmware, and serial identity in normalized output.
+- System firmware such as BIOS and iBMC versions survives xFusion file exports.
+- xFusion archives participate more reliably in canonical device/export flows without special UI
+  cases.
