# PVC VM automirrors
# > PVC supports automirrors, which can perform automatic snapshot-level VM mirrors of selected
# virtual machines based on tags. The mirrors are fully managed on a consistent schedule, and
# include both full and incremental varieties.
# > To solve the shared storage issue and ensure mirrors are taken off-cluster, automaticmounting
# of remote filesystems is supported by automirror.

# Enable or disable automirror
# > If disabled, no timers or "/etc/pvc/automirror.yaml" configuration will be installed, and any
# existing timers or configuration will be REMOVED on each run (even if manually created).
# > Since automirror is an integrated PVC CLI feature, the command will always be available regardless
# of this setting, but without this option enabled, the lack of a "/etc/pvc/automirror.yaml" will
# prevent its use.

# > Automirror selects VMs based on their tags. If a VM has a tag present in this list, it will be
# selected for automirror at runtime; if not it will be ignored.
# > Usually, the tag "automirror" here is sufficient; the administrator should then add this tag
# to any VM(s) they want to use automirrors. However, any tag may be specified to keep the tag list
# cleaner and more focused, should the administrator choose to.
# > A cluster can be explicitly set by suffixing `:clustername` from the cluster list to the tag.
# > If a VM has multiple `:clustername` tags, it will be mirrored to all of them sequentially
# using the same source snapshot.

# Automirror scheduling
schedule:
# Mirrors are performed at regular intervals via a systemd timer
# > This default schedule performs a mirror every 4 hours starting at midnight
# > These options use a systemd timer date string; see "man systemd.time" for details
time: "*-*-* 00/4:00:00"
# The retention count specifies how many mirrors should be kept, based on the destination count
# for a given VM and cluster pairing to prevent failed mirrors from being cleaned up on the source
# > Retention cleanup is run after each full mirror, and thus, that mirror is counted in this number
# > For example, a value of 7 means that there will always be at least 7 mirrors on the remote side.
# When a new full mirror is taken, the oldest (i.e. 8rd) mirror is removed.
# > Thus, this schedule combined with this retention will ensure there's always 24 hours of mirrors.

# Set reporting options for automirrors
# NOTE: By default, pvc-ansible installs a local Postfix MTA and Postfix sendmail to send emails
