Deleting Sandboxes

Warning
When deleting a sandbox, it is important to remove ALL NIOS-X physical servers FIRST. Failing to do so before deleting the sandbox will prevent the physical server from rejoining the Infoblox Portal. This applies to ALL types of NIOS-X physical servers, such as Dell VEPs, B105, B212, and Trinzic X6. The same rule applies to NIOS-X virtual servers. However, with virtual servers, if you delete and redeploy them, they will receive a new serial number.

You can remove a sandbox when you no longer require the testing environment.

To retain data from the sandbox, you can first export the data to a CSV file and later import it to a different environment. For information about the import/export feature, see Importing and Exporting Data.

To remove a sandbox:

Select the checkbox of the sandbox you want to remove.
Click … > Delete or Actions > Delete.

The sandbox is removed as soon as you click Delete. All users being added to the sandbox will also be removed (except for users added outside of the sandbox). In addition, ensure that you refresh your browser for the deleted sandbox to be removed from the user account menu, located at the bottom of the left navigation bar of the Infoblox Portal.
