Why is Vykar checking snapshots in a repo that don't belong to the host running the backup?

[ilium007]

I ran a backup to a shared repo from host pve01, once the backup completed it checked all snapshots included those from host unbound01:

root@pve01:~# vi /etc/vykar/config.yaml

Checks are NOT filtered by any metadata, like hostname. So a check will always run on the whole repo.

Seems intensive per machine if a bunch of machines are backing up to the same repo to capitalise on de-dupe.
