Consequences of deleting a volume

Deleting a volume is an irreversible operation: all data stored on the volume cannot be recovered.

You can only delete volumes that:

have the Not in use status: if the volume status is Active, you must first disconnect it from the resource;
do not have active snapshots: otherwise, you must first delete the snapshot created for that volume.
