Delete a Volume
delete
/20160918/volumes/{volume_id}
Delete the specified volume from the Block Volume service when the volume is no longer needed.
Caution: When you delete a volume, any data on the volume is permanently deleted.
You cannot undo this operation. To keep a backup of the volume indefinitely (policy-based backups eventually expire), use CreateVolumeBackup to create a manual backup of the volume before you delete the volume. The volume cannot have an active connection to an instance. To detach the volume from an instance use DetachVolume.
