<a name="remove-fsxshadowstorage"></a>

 You can delete your shadow copy configuration, including all existing shadow copies and the shadow copy schedule. At the same time, you can release the shadow copy storage on the file system.

To do this, enter the `Remove-FsxShadowStorage` command in a remote PowerShell session on your file system. For instructions on launching a remote PowerShell session on your file system, see [Using the Amazon FSx CLI for PowerShell](administering-file-systems.md#remote-pwrshell).
