Subject: [PATCH pve-container v4 17/27] api: destroy_vm: add option to handle dangling IPSet references
Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2026 14:46:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261022124708.429069-18-a.bied-charreton@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261022124708.429069-1-a.bied-charreton@proxmox.com>

For each guest with IPAM entries, a 'guest-ipam-<vmid>' IPSet is
auto-generated [0]. Therefore, deleting a guest can lead to firewall
rules referencing non-existing IPSets, which the firewall fails to
parse and ignores.

Add a 'dangling-ipset-references' option for DELETE
/nodes/{node}/lxc/{vmid} allowing to 'drop' rules referencing
now-deleted IPSets, to 'disable' them, or to 'keep' them as they are.
