Scheduling and Un-scheduling the Deletion of Standalone Machines

Why is the deletion schedule important?

If you're using a Standalone machine to revisit a lab from a past course, or as a trainer preparing for a class, you don't need to worry about it.

However, to optimize resource usage, any standalone machine that remains idle for more than a month will be set for automatic deletion, and you'll receive a 7-day heads-up beforehand.

You can also cancel the deletion if needed.
