You can delete a datastore snapshot created with the Oracle vSphere Plug-In for Oracle Flash Storage Systems when the datastore snapshot is no longer needed.
Deleting a snapshot removes it from the inventory of snapshots taken of the datastore.
- In vSphere, select Datastores and Datastore Clusters.
- In the vSphere inventory tree, select the datastore from which you want to delete a snapshot.
This datastore must contain LUNs only from a single Oracle FS System.
- Right-click the datastore and select .
Result:The Manage Snapshots page displays a list of the existing snapshots.
- Provide authentication credentials for the Oracle FS System if you have not already provided them.
- Select the snapshot to be deleted, and click Delete Snapshot.
- Click OK to confirm that you want to delete the snapshot.
