Managing VPGs : Deleting a VPG
  
Deleting a VPG
You can delete a VPG. When using Long Term Retention, any retention sets stored for the VPG are not deleted and the virtual machines in this VPG can be restored.
Note: You cannot delete a VPG while a retention process is running.
To delete a VPG:
1. In the Zerto User Interface, click the VPGs or VMs tab and select one or more VPGs to delete.
2. Click MORE > Delete.
The Delete dialog is displayed.
3. Check Keep target disks at the peer site if you might reprotect the virtual machines. When protecting to AWS, you cannot save the disks for preseeding.
4. Click DONE to delete the VPG.
The VPG configuration is deleted. The VRA on the recovery site that handles the replication for the VPG is updated including keeping or removing the replicated data for the deleted VPG, dependent on the Keep target disks at the peer site setting during the deletion.
The locations of the saved target disks are specified in the description of the event for the virtual machines being removed, event EV0040, displayed in MONITORING > EVENTS.
