When a clone physical disk is no longer needed in an Oracle FS System, you can delete it in the Oracle VM Manager. Be sure the volume to be deleted is not being accessed.
- Prerequisite:
Oracle FS System login credentials with Administrator 1 privileges.
Note: When a physical disk that is a parent or source for clone physical disks is deleted, all child clones are deleted as well.
Caution

Oracle VM Manager permanently removes all data that reside on that clone physical disk. Data will be lost.
