hi, as it seems syncing a datastore to another pbs will "inherit" the verify state of the source snapshot(s)

is there a way to unset that verified flag on/after transfer so verify can be run AFTER transfer/sync, so we can verify freshly transferred snapshots and and can use re-verify-after-30d as normal ?

and wouldn't it make sense that some verify is being included in every sucessful sync of a chunk/snapshot, i.e. it's getting either verified "in flight" or "after write" when it's not verified on the source before transfer

ah, thanks for the pointer, i searched bugzilla but did miss this ticket.

but for my curiousity - when newly pulled data chunks are already verified - why do they appear unverified at the sync target when they had not been verified at the source before ? shouldn't set pbs them as verified then ?

That is because during sync, already known chunks (since 4.1 limited to the same group, see [0]) can be skipped. These might however not be good anymore locally, needing a re-verification.
