Deleting Snapshots

Last updated: 2023-12-22 10:44:46

    Overview

    When there is no need to use the snapshot again, you can delete the snapshot to release virtual resources.

    Notes

    When you delete a snapshot, only the data exclusive to the snapshot will be deleted, and the cloud disk for which the snapshot is created will not be affected.
    You can use a snapshot to recover a cloud disk to the data status when the snapshot is created. Deleting a snapshot created earlier for a cloud disk will not affect the continued use of snapshots created later.
    If a snapshot has been associated with an image, delete the image before deleting the snapshot.
    Deleting a snapshot will also delete all data in the snapshot, and the data cannot be retrieved. Deleted snapshots cannot be restored, so delete snapshots with caution.
