• If a disk has been configured with the disaster recovery service (CSDR, CSHA, or VHA), the disk cannot be deleted.

• If a disk is created using vAPP, the disk cannot be deleted.

• If an EVS disk has a snapshot, the EVS disk can be soft deleted only when the snapshot is in the Available or Error state.

• When an EVS disk is permanently deleted, all snapshots of the EVS disk are also deleted.

• A shared disk to be deleted must have been detached from all instances.

2. On the Elastic Volume Service page, locate the row that contains the target data disk, click More in the Operation column, and choose Delete.
