Manage proxy node ( restore Only , backup Only ,both)

Hello,

We have production and not production environment. Some nodes needs to be restored on not production environment. But a derogation is mandatory to do it.

So, we configured proxy nodes . Then we can lock and unlock the nodes to be compliance with the request and the derogation.

Moreover a production node cannot in anyway be altered by data providing from a nonproduction nodes (using proxy node). So it would be great to define how we use the proxy.

As restore only, Backup only, or both.


We should also be able to disable the client option "fromnode", to avoid users of the infrastructure to bypass segmentations and derogations of the organization using the product.

 

best regards

Idea priority High
