[pbs-devel] [RFC PATCH proxmox-backup 0/5] add 'protected' setting for snapshots

[Dominik Csapak]

add the means to 'protect' a snapshot against pruning by
adding a file '.protected' in the snapshot folder

sending as RFC because i am not sure about a couple things, and there
is no gui (yet):

* does it make sense to protect a snapshot this way? or would it be
  better to have a 'central' protected list somewhere?
  (sounds not right though..)
* would we want to protect also against manual removal ? or
 'remove-vanished' on sync?
* how should the ui look? do we want *another* button in the content
  view?
* would it make sense to specify this flag on backup creation too?

the finished series would fix #3602

Dominik Csapak (5):
  pbs-datastore: add protection info to BackupInfo
  pbs-datastore: skip protected backups in pruning
  add protected info of snapshots to api and task logs
  api2/admin/datastore: add get/set_protection
  ui: PruneInputPanel: add keepReason 'protected' for protected backups
