Introduction

Deleting an EVE-OS image removes it from your enterprise’s image list. Deleting an image from your enterprise does not delete the image file from the underlying datastore. You must remove it from the datastore separately if needed. EVE-OS image deletion for a regular enterprise administrator is performed using ZCLI. There is no dedicated EVE-OS Images management page in the console for that role. Cloud-service and support administrators can also delete an image from the console EVE-OS Images page under Admin Dashboard > Images > EVE-OS Images.

​
Prerequisites

  • ZCLI running. See Get Started With ZCLI for authentication steps.
  • The image you want to delete must not be currently set as a default image. If it is, set a different image as the default first. See Manage Default EVE-OS Images.
  • The image must not be installed on any node in your enterprise. An image currently deployed to a node cannot be deleted.
