Deleting a Filesystem, LUN, or Object Store (CLI)

If file retention is set, review section File Retention Management. A filesystem containing unexpired files with privileged file retention can be deleted. A filesystem containing unexpired files with mandatory file retention cannot be deleted until retention has expired for all of its retained files.

Caution:

Deleting a filesystem, LUN, or Object Store destroys all data in the share and cannot be undone.

Go to shares.
```
hostname> shares
```
Enter select and the project name that contains the filesystem, LUN, or Object Store.
```
hostname:shares> select default
```
Enter select and the filesystem, LUN, or Object Store name.
```
hostname:shares default>select fs-1
```

Enter destroy.

hostname:shares default/fs-1> destroy
This will destroy all data in "fs-1"! Are you sure? (Y/N)

Enter Y.
```
hostname:shares default> Y
```
