Deleting a Snapshot
When you are done performing a backup, you need to delete the temporary snapshot. You can get the moRef for the snapshot from taskRef.info.result as describe above for the create snapshot operation. The following Java code demonstrates how to delete the snapshot:
ManagedObjectReference removeSnapshotTask; ManagedObjectReference snapshot; // Already initialized. removeSnapshotTask = serviceConnection.getservice().removeSnapshot_Task(snapshot, Boolean FALSE);
