---> Actual Repository does not allow volume delete
+===== Actual Repository Does Not Allow Volume Deletes =====
-The error **Actual Repository does not allow volume delete** means that the repository option **Allow deletes** is set to false.  This option is set to false by default to limit the ability of accidental deletion of volumes.
+The error ''Actual Repository does not allow volume delete'' indicates that the ''[[options:repository:allow_deletes|Repository Option Allow deletes]]'' is set to false.  This option is set to false by default to limit the ability of accidental deletion of [[object:volume|Volumes]].
+<note tip>It is best practice to keep ''[[options:repository:allow_deletes|Repository Option Allow deletes]]'' set to ''False'' unless in the actual process of deleting [[object:volume|Volumes]].  This keeps a safeguard on accidental deletion during normal operation.</note>
+To enable [[object:volume|Volumes]] deletion:
+  * Right click required [[object:repository|Repository]] and select ''Properties'' or double-click repository.
+  * Select ''Options'' tab.
+  * Set ''[[options:repository:allow_deletes|Allow Deletes]]'' to ''True'' for the required [[object:repository|Repository]].
+  * Click ''Save'' to confirm alterations.
-To allow volume deletion, set **Allow Deletes** to ''True'' for the required repository.
