It would defeat the purpose of WORM. WORM should guarantee no
modifications to already written content.

Implementations where modifications are not allowed but deletions by authorized administrators are allowed do exist today. This policy would be optional and the default behaviour would be to allow no deletions.

Hi,

we were hoping to be able to use the upcoming worm feature for a backup
volume, however I again read the wiki page describing it and found the
following:

With a volume converted to WORM, the changes are as follows:
   * Truncation, Deletion wont be supported

So there will be no way to delete files?


If you think it would be helpful, we can make this an optional behaviour.
Enabling an option "allow-delete" could pass through deletes on to the next
translator.
