Lumen help
Use the Edge Services portal to delete a provisioned Amazon Web Services (AWS) instance that is no longer needed. You can also edit, view details, suspend an instance, and back up data stored on an instance.
Important: Lumen does not back up data when an AWS instance is deleted. Before deleting an instance, back up any data needed for your records.
To delete an AWS instance:
- Click Provisioning, then click Instances.
The Edge Services portal shows the instances (e.g., bare metal servers, virtual machines) created for your organization.
- Click an AWS instance to view more information.
The Edge Services portal shows details for the AWS instance you selected. Details vary based on the type of instance selected and your role.
- Review the details for the AWS instance to ensure you selected the correct one, then click DELETE.
- In the confirmation window, click DELETE.
The Edge Services portal securely erases the instance, removes it from the list, disconnects the network, and removes it from the inventory.
