Abstract

Implementations of the disclosure provide for live storage domain decommissioning in a virtual environment. A method of the disclosure includes identifying, by a processing device, a storage domain to decommission from a storage system. The storage domain comprises a plurality of disk images. It is determined whether the disk images are associated with a virtual machine. Thereupon, the disk images are hot-unplugged from the virtual machine. Responsive to detecting that the disk images are unplugged from the virtual machine, the disk image is deleted from the storage domain and the storage domain is removed from the storage system.
