- 
This specifies the name of the application from which a Snapshot is to be deleted. 
- [-protection-group <text>]- Protection Group

This specifies the name of the protection-group or application component where a Snapshot copy is to be deleted. This field is optional, and if not specified, the application itself will be treated as the protection-group. 
- -snapshot <snapshot name>- Snapshot
- 
This specifies the name of the Snapshot that is to be deleted.

If this parameter is specified, the Snapshot copy is immediately deleted without generating any confirmation messages. Otherwise the operation generates confirmation messages.
