Elastic Compute Service:Delete an automatic snapshot policy

Last Updated:Dec 16, 2024

You can delete automatic snapshot policies that you no longer need. After you delete an automatic snapshot policy, the policy no longer takes effect on all disks that were associated with the policy, and snapshots are no longer automatically created based on the policy for the disks. This helps avoid continuously creating redundant snapshots, thereby reducing snapshot costs. The existing snapshots are not affected by the deletion of the policy.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the ECS console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Storage & Snapshots > Snapshots.

  3. In the top navigation bar, select the region and resource group to which the resource belongs. 地域

  4. On the Snapshots page, click the Automatic Snapshot Policies tab.

  5. On the Automatic Snapshot Policies tab, find the automatic snapshot policy that you want to delete and click Delete Automatic Snapshot Policy in the Actions column.

  6. In the message that appears, click Confirm.
