Delete image caches

warning

Image caches are subject to quota management, which limits the maximum number of image caches that can be retained per Volcano Engine root user. You can manually delete image caches in the following states:

For image caches that have been created and used and will no longer be needed, you can delete them.

For image caches that failed to be created or deleted (status: Failed), you can delete them.

Image cache deletion is irreversible. Proceed with caution.

Log in to the VKE console.

In the left navigation bar, click Volcengine Container Instance > Image Cache.

On the Image Cache page, find the target image cache and click Delete in the Actions column to delete the image cache.
