Overview
As an administrator, you can delete snapshots that you no longer require for the virtual machines.
If you are a cloud administrator, you can delete snapshots for a virtual machine.
If you are a group administrator, you can delete snapshots for virtual machines belonging to the administrative groups you manage.
After you delete a snapshot, Druva purges the snapshot data from the storage, thus freeing up space.
📝 Note
You cannot delete the most recent snapshot of a virtual machine.
