[DEFAULT] # # Turn on/off delayed delete. # # Typically when an image is deleted, the ``glance-api`` service puts the image # into ``deleted`` state and deletes its data at the same time. Delayed delete # is a feature in Glance that delays the actual deletion of image data until a # later point in time (as determined by the configuration option # ``scrub_time``). # When delayed delete is turned on, the ``glance-api`` service puts the image # into ``pending_delete`` state upon deletion and leaves the image data in the # storage backend for the image scrubber to delete at a later time. The image # scrubber will move the image into ``deleted`` state upon successful deletion # of image data. # # NOTE: When delayed delete is turned on, image scrubber MUST be running as a # periodic task to prevent the backend storage from filling up with undesired # usage. # # Possible values: # * True # * False # # Related options: # * ``scrub_time`` # * ``wakeup_time`` # * ``scrub_pool_size`` # # (boolean value) delayed_delete = True
# # The amount of time, in seconds, to delay image scrubbing. # # When delayed delete is turned on, an image is put into ``pending_delete`` # state upon deletion until the scrubber deletes its image data. Typically, soon # after the image is put into ``pending_delete`` state, it is available for # scrubbing. However, scrubbing can be delayed until a later point using this # configuration option. This option denotes the time period an image spends in # ``pending_delete`` state before it is available for scrubbing. # # It is important to realize that this has storage implications. The larger the # ``scrub_time``, the longer the time to reclaim backend storage from deleted # images. # # Possible values: # * Any non-negative integer # # Related options: # * ``delayed_delete`` # # (integer value) # Minimum value: 0 scrub_time = 99999999
