# Deleting a Host

Hosts must be unmapped from volumes before being deleted. You can choose to force unmap a host in order to delete it.

## Deleting a Host from the VAST Web UI

1. Right-click the host and select Remove.
2. If you want to force the deletion even if the host is mapped to volumes, enable the Force slider.
3. Click Delete Host.
