If your cache uses a non-default DNS configuration, it's possible for your NFS storage target's IP address to change because of back-end DNS changes. If your DNS server changes the back-end storage system's IP address, Azure HPC Cache can lose access to the storage system.

The regular delete option permanently removes the storage target from the HPC Cache, but first it synchronizes the cache contents with the back-end storage system. It's different from the force delete option, which does not synchronize data.
