Creating your file...
You delete snapshot images to clean up the oldest snapshot image from a snapshot group or snapshot consistency group.
You can delete a single snapshot image, or you can delete snapshot images from snapshot consistency groups that have the same creation timestamp. You also can delete snapshot images from a snapshot group.
You cannot delete a snapshot image if it is not the oldest snapshot image for the associated base volume or snapshot consistency group.
-
Select Storage › Snapshots.
-
Click the Snapshot Images tab.
-
Select the snapshot image that you want to delete, and confirm that you want to perform the operation.
If you selected a snapshot image of a snapshot consistency group, select each member volume that you want to delete, and confirm that you want to perform the operation.
-
Click Delete.
System Manager performs the following actions:
-
Deletes the snapshot image from the storage array.
-
Releases the reserved capacity for reuse within the snapshot group or snapshot consistency group.
-
Disables all the associated snapshot volumes that exist for the deleted snapshot image.
-
From a snapshot consistency group deletion, moves any member volume associated with the deleted snapshot image to a Stopped state.
