# Remove-ZertoVpg
## SYNOPSIS
Deletes a Zerto Virtual Protection Group
## SYNTAX
### vpgIdentifier (Default)
```
Remove-ZertoVpg -vpgidentifier <String[]> [-keepRecoveryVolumes] [-force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm]
[<CommonParameters>]
```
### vpgName
```
Remove-ZertoVpg [-vpgName] <String[]> [-keepRecoveryVolumes] [-force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```
## DESCRIPTION
Deletes a Zerto Virtual Protection Group.
## EXAMPLES
### Example 1
```powershell
PS C:\> Remove-ZertoVpg -vpgName "MyVpg"
```
Deletes Zerto Virtual Protection Group named "MyVpg". Recovery volumes at the recovery site will be deleted.
### Example 2
```powershell
PS C:\> Remove-ZertoVpg -vpgName "MyVpg", "MyOtherVpg" -keepRecoveryVolumes
```
Deletes Zerto Virtual Protection Groups named "MyVpg" and "MyOtherVpg." Recovery volumes at the recovery site will be retained for both VPGs.
### Example 3
```powershell
PS C:\> Remove-ZertoVpg -vpgIdentifier "MyVpgIdentifier" -keepRecoveryVolumes
```
Deletes Zerto Virtual Protection Group with vpgIdentifier "MyVpgIdentifier". Recovery volumes at the recovery site will be retained.
### Example 4
```powershell
PS C:\> Get-ZertoVpg -recoverySiteIdentifier "MyRecoverySiteIdentifier" | Remove-ZertoVpg
```
Uses the `Get-ZertoVpg` function to get all VPGs currently being protected to recovery site with identifier "MyRecoverySiteIdentifier." This information is piped into the `Remove-ZertoVpg` function and will remove all VPGs being protected to the specified recovery site.
## PARAMETERS
### -force
Use this switch to force delete the VPG. If unused, a non-forced remove vpg operation will be executed.
```yaml
Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
```
### -keepRecoveryVolumes
Use this switch to keep the recovery volumes at the target site. If the virtual machines in the deleted VPG are re-protected, these volumes can be used as pre-seed volumes to speed up the initial synchronization of the new VPG. If this switch is not set, recovery volumes will not be retained. If required to be retained, get the path to these volumes prior to the deletion to use as pre-seed volumes for an easier operation.
```yaml
Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
```
### -vpgidentifier
vpgIdentifier(s) of the VPG(s) to delete.
```yaml
Type: String[]
Parameter Sets: vpgIdentifier
