### Protection backups against deletion by retention policy
You can protect any backup against deletion by retention policy with the `vmbackupmanager backups lock` command.
For instance:
```console
./vmbackupmanager backup lock daily/2021-02-13 -dst=<DST_PATH> -storageDataPath=/vmstorage-data -eula
```
After that the backup won't be deleted by retention policy.
You can view the `locked` attribute in backup list:
```console
./vmbackupmanager backup list -dst=<DST_PATH> -storageDataPath=/vmstorage-data -eula
```
To remove protection, you can use the command `vmbackupmanager backups unlock`.
For example:
```console
./vmbackupmanager backup unlock daily/2021-02-13 -dst=<DST_PATH> -storageDataPath=/vmstorage-data -eula
```

* FEATURE: [vmbackup](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmbackup.html): add `-s3StorageClass` command-line flag for setting the storage class for AWS S3 backups. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4164). Thanks to @justcompile for the [pull request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/4166).
* FEATURE: [vmbackup](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmbackup.html): store backup creation and completion time in `backup_complete.ignore` file of backup contents. This allows determining the exact timestamp when the backup was created and completed.
* FEATURE: [vmbackupmanager](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmbackupmanager.html): add `created_at` field to the output of `/api/v1/backups` API and `vmbackupmanager backup list` command. See this [doc](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmbackupmanager.html#api-methods) for data format details.
* FEATURE: [vmbackupmanager](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmbackupmanager.html): add commands for locking/unlocking backups against deletion by retention policy. See this [doc](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmbackupmanager.html#api-methods) for data format details.
* FEATURE: [vmctl](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmctl.html): add support for [different time formats](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Single-server-VictoriaMetrics.html#timestamp-formats) for `--vm-native-filter-time-start` and `--vm-native-filter-time-end` command-line flags. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4091).
* BUGFIX: reduce the probability of sudden increase in the number of small parts on systems with small number of CPU cores.
