The Destroy function in M-Files Admin can be used to permanently destroy all data from a vault.
To delete a cloud vault, refer to Deleting a Cloud Vault in the M-Files Manage user guide.
Warning: When you destroy a vault, the following operations are carried out:
- All the vault file data on the M-Files server is permanently deleted.
- The vault database is permanently deleted.
To destroy a vault:
The selected document vault, including its file data and its database, are permanently deleted and the vault can no longer be accessed by users.
Note: The Destroy function naturally does not affect backups
located on the hard drive. The document vault can thus be restored if backups have
been made.
