Schedule/Un-schedule Deletion of Standalone Machine

Why should you care about the deletion schedule?

If you're using a Standalone machine to revisit a past lab from a course you've taken, or you're a trainer getting a course ready, there's absolutely no reason to be concerned about this.

However, to use system resources more efficiently, any standalone machine that has been idle for more than a month will automatically get a deletion scheduled. We'll notify you about it seven days in advance.

You can also undo the scheduled deletion.
