Description

I have 2 identical machines for running a multi LAN/WAN pfsense.
One machine is running and a 2nd is there as a spare.

If a machine for some reason stops I start the spare one and then feed it with the latest config of the running server.
It then reboots and takes ages before the machine becomes available because it removes all packages and then removes them.
Most of the time this is an unnecessary action as all the packages are already there.

It's already possible to do a partial restore.
It would really help if it is (optionally) able to skip that step.
