Deleting a File System
On Compute Cloud@Customer, you can delete a file system that doesn't have any dependencies.
You can't undo this operation. Any data in a file system is permanently deleted with the file system. You can't recover a deleted file system or its snapshots.
A file system that has an export can't be deleted. To delete the export, see Deleting an Export.
You can't delete file systems that have dependencies. For example, if you have created a snapshot of this file system and then created a new file system from the snapshot, you can't delete the source file system.
For more information, see Deleting File System Resources Overview.
