Deleting a Snapshot
Scenarios
If a snapshot is no longer needed, you can delete it to release the virtual resources.
Constraints
- The snapshot status must be Available or Error.
- If a disk is deleted, all the snapshots created for this disk will also be deleted.
- If a snapshot is deleted, disks rolled back and created from this snapshot are not affected.
- If you have reinstalled or changed the server OS, snapshots of the system disk are automatically deleted. Snapshots of the data disks can be used as usual.
- A snapshot whose name starts with autobk_snapshot_vbs_, manualbk_snapshot_vbs_, autobk_snapshot_csbs_, or manualbk_snapshot_csbs_ is automatically generated during backup. You can only view details of such snapshots and cannot delete them.
Procedure
- Log in to the management console.
- Click
in the upper left corner and select the desired region and project.
- Under Storage, click Elastic Volume Service.
- In the navigation pane on the left, choose Elastic Volume Service > Snapshots.
The snapshot list page is displayed.
- In the snapshot list, locate the row that contains the target snapshot and click Delete in the Operation column.
- (Optional) If multiple snapshots are to be deleted, select
in front of each snapshot and click Delete in the upper area of the list.
- In the displayed dialog box, confirm the information and click Yes.
If the snapshot disappears from the snapshot list, the snapshot is deleted successfully.
