User Story

As a OpenShift developer I want to be able to prevent a Machine from being deleted so that I can ensure my application is safely backed up/migrated to a new host before the Machine is taken away from us.

Background

To allow other components such as storage or etcd to safely handle a Machine going away, we need a way for them to pause the machine removal process until they have completed their shutdown procedure.

Steps

• Create a new enhancement based on https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/blob/master/docs/proposals/20200602-machine-deletion-phase-hooks.md
