Answer 1

Please try the following:

1) Check if the disk is attached to a VM, Get-AzureDisk | Where-Object {$_.AttachedTo -eq $null} | Format-Table -auto "DiskName" Make sure that the VHDs they want to delete are included in this list.

2) If the disks are listed in the result from step #1, continue with deleting the VHDs using this command, Remove-AzureDisk -DiskName -DeleteVHD Replace with the DiskName that shows up in the list from first command.

3) If VHD is not listed in step #1, it means it is still attached to a VM. If that’s the case, then they must detach the disk from the VM and delete VHD. Get-AzureVM –Name | Get-AzureDataDisk Replace , with corresponding values. This will provide them with the list of data disks attached to their VM along with the LUN number.

Get-AzureVM –Name | Remove-AzureDataDisk -LUN -DeleteVHD | Update-AzureVM • Replace , and with corresponding values. This command will also delete the corresponding VHD.
