[pve-devel] [PATCH storage v3 0/4] pbs: fix #5008: Prevent adding pbs storage with invalid namespace

[Philipp Hufnagl]

Currently, when adding a PBS storage with a namespace that does not
exist, the storage gets added normally, but browsing/using it only
returns a cryptic error message.

This change checks if the namespace entered when adding is valid and
prompts an error if it is not. If no namespace is provided, the storage
will be added without error.

This is done by adding code to check if the namespace exists and call it
as well as existing code to check if a datastore exists on the add and
update hooks of the PBS datastore.

 * adds new methods to check namespaces
 * calls checks on add/update hooks
