Hi Chris,
Are you looking for the 'protected' attribute? You can mark an image
with 'protected'=True, then the image can't be deleted by accidentally.

The goal here is protection against deletion of in-use images, not a
workaround that can be executed by an admin. For instance, someone
without admin still can't do that, and someone with a fat finger can
still delete images in use.
"Don't lose your data" is a fine workaround for taking backups, but
most of us take backups anyway. Same deal.

Just set the images to is_public=False as an admin and they'll
disappear from everyone except the admin.

Currently, with delay_delete enabled, the Glance scrubber happily

It'd be
nice to have an option to tell the scrubber to skip deletion
of images
that are currently in use, which is fairly trivial to check
for and
provides a nice measure of protection.
Without delay_delete enabled, checking for images in use
likely takes
too much time, so this would be limited to just images that
are scrubbed
with delay_delete.
I wanted to bring this up here before I go to the trouble of
writing a
spec for it, particularly since it doesn't appear that glance
currently
talks to Nova as a client at all. Is this something that folks
would be
interested in having? Thanks!
