Dell EMC Avamar for VMware 19.7 User Guide

Delete a VMware client

Delete a client and all backups of the client. Optionally, choose to delete all replicas that exist on replication destination systems.

About this task

When you delete a client, Avamar permanently deletes all backups that are stored for that client. Only delete a client when you are certain that there is no reason to retain the backups. If there is any doubt, retire the client instead.

Steps

  1. In the AUI navigation pane on the left, click Details icon, and then click Asset Management.
  2. In the hierarchical Domain tree, select a vCenter domain or a subdomain.
  3. In the list of clients, select the client that you want to delete.
    You can only view clients in the domain for the login account. To view all clients, log in to the root domain.
  4. Click MORE ACTIONS > Delete Client.
    The Delete Client dialog box appears and displays the number of existing backups for the client.
  5. Select I understand this action is permanent and irreversible.
    This field is a safety net to avoid unintentionally deleting a client and the client's backups.
  6. Click YES.
