delete

Delete a BackupUnit

Usage

ionosctl compute backupunit delete [flags]

Aliases

For backupunit command:

[b backup]

For delete command:

[d]

Description

Use this command to delete a BackupUnit. This is a DESTRUCTIVE and irreversible operation: a successful delete removes the backup plans inside the unit, ALL backups stored in it, the backup login user, and finally the BackupUnit itself.

Because the name (backup login) is immutable, deleting is also the only way to "rename" a unit: delete and recreate under a new name (note the recreated unit starts empty).

Required values to run command:

• BackupUnit Id
