- removed snapshots go to a trash on the location and their data is only
freed after the deletion delay, which is chosen when the key is created
(default 7 days, 1-365) and cannot be changed afterwards; any admin can
bring them back (occ backup:trash, backup:trash:restore, web UI)
- up to three passphrase slots open the same master key (like LUKS), so
one person leaving or dying does not lock the company out; slot changes
are written to every location, announced to all admins and require a
new recovery kit confirmation, while backups keep running
- occ backup:key:slots, backup:key:slot:add|replace|remove; key init takes
--label and --delete-delay-days
- web UI: deletion delay and first slot at key creation, slot management,
trash per location with restore; all behind password confirmation
- README: key, slots (safe / CTO / head of IT), and protection against
ransomware: object lock in compliance mode (e.g. 90 days), credentials
without delete rights, provider snapshots, off-site copy
- RetentionPolicy (last/daily/weekly/monthly) and PruneService: forget
snapshots the policy drops, delete packs nothing uses and repack mostly
unused ones by copying encrypted blobs as-is; new packs are indexed
before old ones are removed
- a location lock keeps prune and backups apart; append-only locations
are never pruned (cleanup via the location's lifecycle rules)
- weekly prune from the background job; occ backup:prune [--dry-run],
backup:retention, backup:target:append-only
- tests: forget+prune frees space and the remaining snapshot restores
identically, repack of mixed packs, dry-run preview, retention buckets
