Delete virtual machine recovery points
Phoenix Editions:

As an administrator, you can delete recovery points that you no longer require for the virtual machines.
- If you are a cloud administrator, you can delete recovery points for a virtual machine.
- If you are a group administrator, you can delete recovery points for virtual machines belonging to the administrative groups that you manage.
After you delete a recovery point, Druva purges the recovery point data from the storage, thus freeing up space.
Note: You cannot delete the most-recent recovery point of a virtual machine.
