REQ: Add --purge to VM deletion #157

Closed rm-td closed 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not a problem or bug, a suggestion for future enhancement. Not seen any similar request, however apologies if duplicated.

Describe the solution you'd like Provide some sort of tickbox or similar when deleting a VM to pass the "--purge" option to remove from backup jobs etc. as per proxmox interface.

Command-line equivalant would be "qm destroy --purge".

Describe alternatives you've considered Routine manual observation of proxmox server to ensure correct config and nothing left behind works well, this is a suggested enhancement for the foreman plugin.

Additional context qm(1) manual entry gives following, interest is in the --purge option

qm destroy [OPTIONS]

   Destroy the vm (also delete all used/owned volumes).

   <vmid>: <integer> (1 - N)
       The (unique) ID of the VM.

   --purge <boolean>
       Remove vmid from backup cron jobs.

   --skiplock <boolean>
       Ignore locks - only root is allowed to use this option.

Thank you for the proxmox plugin!

VM deletion is a foreman feature. I cannot modify the foreman UI. You should post an issue in foreman project. You could ask to customize the host deletion with a custom parameter which could depend on compute resource.
