Subject: [PATCH container v10 06/10] destroy template: add early check for linked clones of volumes
Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2026 16:13:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260701141339.181276-7-m.koeppl@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260701141339.181276-1-m.koeppl@proxmox.com>
This check matches the behavior already implemented for VMs and prevents
partial storage deletion if a container template has a linked clone. In
such cases, the destruction of the container template will now fail,
informing the user that the base volume is still in use by the linked
clone. In case of a storage error (such as the underlying storage not
existing anymore), a warning will be printed and execution continues,
mimicking the handling of storage errors in later stages of
destroy_lxc_container().
