This topic describes how to delete a custom image.
Precautions
Before you delete a custom image, create a snapshot for the disks of the simple application server. You can use the snapshot to roll back the disks to restore the disk data to a time point even if a disk fails. For more information, see Create a snapshot and Roll back a disk based on a snapshot.
After a custom image is deleted, you cannot reset the OSs of the simple application servers created from it.
Procedure
Go to the Image page in the Simple Application Server console.
Find the custom image that you want to delete on the Custom Images tab and choose in the Actions column.
NoteIf you want to know which simple application server does the image belong to, you can view the ID and name of the server in the Image Source column.
If the custom image is not shared to ECS, click Confirm to delete the custom image.
If the custom image is shared to ECS, select Unshare the image to ECS and click Confirm in the pop up dialog box.
ImportantYou need to unshare a custom image before you can delete it. After you unshare the custom image, you cannot query the custom image using the ECS console or API. If you want to continue to use the custom image in ECS, we recommend that you copy the custom image to ECS before you delete it. For more information, see Copy an image shared by Simple Application Server in the ECS console.
