Subject: [pbs-devel] [PATCH v2 proxmox-backup] fix: avoid loss of concurrent config changes during datastore deletion
Date: Mon,  3 Nov 2025 15:53:31 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251103145422.128701-1-r.obkircher@proxmox.com> (raw)
Fix a race between the initial reading of the datastore config before
destroying the datastore and concurrent config changes, by re-reading
the config in a locked context before removing the just destroyed
datastore from it.
Previously, the following steps created files in /srv/test2 but
removed test2 from the configuration:
  proxmox-backup-manager datastore create test1 /srv/test1
  proxmox-backup-manager datastore remove test1 --destroy-data &
  sleep 0.1
  proxmox-backup-manager datastore create test2 /srv/test2
