pve_firewall_alias_delete
Delete a Proxmox firewall alias with a dry-run plan to preview before execution. Requires no active rule references; use creation tool to revert if needed.
Instructions
MUTATION: delete a firewall alias. Dry-run by default — the PLAN shows the current alias. PVE refuses while any rule still references the alias. No UNDO: re-create it with pve_firewall_alias_create to revert. Synchronous — confirm=True returns {"status": "ok", "result": None}; no task UPID to poll.
Input Schema
TableJSON Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| kind | No | Guest kind for scope='guest': 'qemu' or 'lxc'. | |
| name | Yes | Name of the alias to delete. | |
| node | No | Node name, required for scope='guest'. | |
| vmid | No | Guest VMID/CTID, required for scope='guest'. | |
| scope | No | Firewall scope: 'cluster' or 'guest' (no node-scope aliases in the PVE API). | cluster |
| digest | No | Optimistic-lock digest forwarded to PVE to abort if the alias changed; this tool's PLAN does not surface a digest to copy (only the rule tools do). | |
| confirm | No | Set True to execute the mutation; False (default) only returns a dry-run PLAN. | |
| proximo_target | No | Which configured Proxmox target to run this call against — a target name from your multi-target config (a specific PVE/PBS/PMG/PDM box). Omit to use the single/default target from the environment; the selection applies only to this call. |
