Scheduling and Cancelling Deletion of Standalone Machines

What makes the deletion schedule relevant for you?

If you rely on a Standalone machine to carry on with lab work from a past course, or if you're a trainer setting up a course, this likely isn't something that concerns you.

You can also cancel this deletion schedule.
