Delete a Volume
There are some important points to keep in mind when you plan to delete a volume:
- You cannot delete a volume if it has snapshots that are online.
Deleting a volume also deletes any snapshots of the volume.
- You cannot delete a volume that has a clone.
Clones share the original data with the source volume.
- When an upstream replicated volume is deleted, the downstream volume is not automatically deleted, in order to provide protection from accidentally deleting a volume.
- A downstream volume cannot be deleted when replication to it is configured.
CAUTION:
When you
delete a volume, all data stored on the volume and all of the associated snapshots
will be destroyed.
