Delete a Workspace

Warning

  • Ensure that all your work is synced to Domino before deleting a workspace. Failure to do so will result in unrecoverable work.

  • When you delete a workspace, all its snapshots are also deleted and cannot be recovered.

You can delete a workspace if it’s no longer needed. You must stop the workspace before it can be deleted.

  1. Go to the project that contains the workspace to delete.

  2. In the navigation pane, click Workspaces.

  3. Click Stop to stop the workspace.

  4. Click the red trash icon to delete the workspace.

Auto-delete Workspaces

If your administrator has enabled the workspace auto-deletion feature, Domino automatically deletes workspaces that have been stopped for 10 days plus a 30-day grace period. Your administrator can modify these periods.

Domino notifies you (in the application and through email) before your workspace is deleted.

  1. The first notification indicates that your workspace has been marked for deletion and the grace period has started.

  2. Halfway through the grace period, Domino notifies you again and indicates whether the workspace has uncommitted changes.

  3. Two days before auto-deletion, Domino notifies you again, including whether the workspace has uncommitted changes.

  4. Finally, Domino notifies you when the workspace has been deleted.

To remove a workspace from the auto-deletion schedule, restart it. The auto-delete period restarts the next time the workspace is stopped.
