Abstract
A method facilitating soft deletion and restoration of clustered file systems includes, in response to receiving an instruction to temporarily disable a computing cluster, creating, by a system including at least one processor, snapshots of volumes associated with a virtual machine (VM) of the computing cluster; generating, by the system, mapping data representative of a mapping between snapshot identifiers, of the snapshots of the volumes associated with the VM, and an instance identifier of the VM; and, in response to the mapping data being determined to have been successfully generated, deleting, by the system, the VM.
