Different UI for shutting down a whole node vs a single container

[r7s]

Is there a way to add extra steps someone needs to do before shutting down a node? Like typing the node name or something like that.

A few days ago I shut down all company apps because I mistakenly clicked on the shutdown button in the node view, not the container view. The dialog that shows after that looks pretty much the same as if I was shutting down a single container, which I didn't realize in time and clicked "Yes".

That's why I'm interested in making this action more difficult. Probably the dialog just having a different color would be enough, but it'd be ideal to make the user type the name of the thing they want to shut down. Is this possible to do in Proxmox?

There is no setting to add more steps with a single click.

In contrast to the gray icon in the container shutdown, there is an orange warning sign in the node shutdown already.

Such behavior is implemented already for the Remove button.

Ah, I didn't notice that (welp ).

Thanks for replying so quick, I understand that such things are not possible right now, it'd be cool to see them in the future though!

For the info,
In ssh console mode, i use Molly-guard

In contrast to the confirmation in the remove button, I think it's quite easy to overlook.

The ideal place for such proposals is an enhancement request in our Bugzilla (https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/). This way it will not be forgotten
