Path parameters

Parameters

The name of the zone for this request.

Query parameters

Parameters
requestId

string

An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed.

For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments.

The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (

00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000

).
deviceName

string

The device name of the disk to detach. Make a

get()

request on the instance to view currently attached disks and device names.

Request body

The request body must be empty.

Response body

If successful, the response body contains an instance of Operation.
