[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup v10 36/46] api/datastore: implement refresh endpoint for stores with s3 backend

Christian Ebner c.ebner at proxmox.com
Mon Jul 21 18:44:57 CEST 2025


Allows to easily refresh the contents on the local cache store for
datastores backed by an S3 object store.

In order to guarantee that no read or write operations are ongoing,
the store is first set into the maintenance mode `S3Refresh`. Objects
are then fetched into a temporary directory to avoid loosing contents
and consistency in case of an error. Once all objects have been
fetched, clears out existing contents and moves the newly fetched
contents in place.

changes since version 9:
- cleanup fetch tempdir if fetch or move fails
