Sailaja is right in pointing that out but I guess at this point we do not respect the minimum value if it's less than 600 seconds . So whatever value you might use , the minimum expunge interval would be 600 sec i.e 10 min approximately.

This is one of the VM state before deleting permanently from cloudstack. In destroy state, User will get option to restore the VM. Next state of destroy is expunging .By default expunge interval set in Cloudstack is 86400 sec. So change the global config "expunge.interval" to minimum value to get it expunged immediately. Expunged is permanent delete from Cloudstack.
