Deleting A Snapshot Image

Use the delete snapshot image command to delete the oldest snapshot image from a snapshot group or consistency group.
After a snapshot image is deleted from a snapshot group:
  • The snapshot image is deleted from the storage array.
  • The repository’s reserve space is released for reuse within the snapshot group.
  • All snapshot virtual disks associated with deleted snapshot image are disabled.
Use the following command to delete a snapshot image from a consistency group: 
delete snapImage (snapGroup="
                                    snapGroupName" | snapGroups=("
                                    snapGroupName1"... "
                                    snapGroupNamen")) (deleteCount=
                                    numberOfSnapImages | retainCount=
                                    numberOfSnapImages | ignoreSnapVirtualDisk=(TRUE | FALSE) | snapImageID=OLDEST)
