3.9.5.5 Remove a Volume Backup

A volume backup is a backup of an Exascale volume snapshot, which provides a consistent point-in-time copy of the volume. Exascale volume backups are stored in an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) object storage container that is associated with the Exascale cluster.

To remove an existing volume backup, use the ESCLI rmvolumebackup command and specify the backup identifier. The command syntax is:

@> rmvolumebackup 2b1:7476692b2499488794951dfe59606e1b

You can use the lsvolumebackup command to find the identifier for each volume backup.
