Delete Volume
storagegateway_delete_volume | R Documentation |
Deletes the specified storage volume that you previously created using the CreateCachediSCSIVolume or CreateStorediSCSIVolume API¶
Description¶
Deletes the specified storage volume that you previously created using
the create_cachedi_scsi_volume
or create_storedi_scsi_volume
API.
This operation is only supported in the cached volume and stored volume
types. For stored volume gateways, the local disk that was configured as
the storage volume is not deleted. You can reuse the local disk to
create another storage volume.
Before you delete a volume, make sure there are no iSCSI connections to the volume you are deleting. You should also make sure there is no snapshot in progress. You can use the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) API to query snapshots on the volume you are deleting and check the snapshot status. For more information, go to DescribeSnapshots in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud API Reference.
In the request, you must provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the storage volume you want to delete.
