To delete snapshots for replica sets and sharded clusters, use the Ops Manager console to find then select a backup snapshot to delete.

Important

The next backup job runs as a full backup rather than an incremental backup.
Point-in-time restores apply oplog entries to the last snapshot taken before the specified point. Deleting a snapshot removes the base snapshot for a PIT restore.

On the list of snapshots, click the Delete link to the right of a snapshot.

Click the OK button on the Delete Snapshot interface to confirm deletion of the backup.
