Deleting a Bucket¶
You can delete unwanted buckets on OBS Console to free up the quota of buckets.
Prerequisites¶
All objects in the bucket have been permanently deleted. A bucket must be emptied before it can be deleted.
Important
Objects under the Objects, Deleted Objects, and Fragments tabs must be all deleted.
A bucket can only be deleted by the bucket owner.
Procedure¶
In the bucket list on OBS Console, select the bucket you want to delete, and then click Delete on the right.
Note
The name of a deleted bucket can be reused for another bucket or parallel file system at least 30 minutes after the deletion.
Important
Bucket name reuse may cause unintended data exposure. If a bucket is deleted and later a new bucket is created with the same name, all previously stored links or references to the old bucket will automatically point to the new one.
It is strongly advised to treat all bucket names and references as persistent and sensitive. Any published or shared links might be reused in unintended ways.
Click Yes to confirm the deletion.
