Resetting the Azure Development Storage

In Azure Deve开发者_如何转开发lopment Storage's UI, there's a Reset button which stops, wipes, and restarts the devstore. Is there a programmatic way of doing this, similar to how I can stop and start the storage using

DevStore.Shutdown();

While I haven't reset the devstore programmatically, I suppose you could shell out to DSInit.exe programmatically:

DSInit /ForceCreate

@david-makogon's response is correct for the version of the SDK used in 2011, however in later versions of Azure Storage Emulator dsinit had been replaced with WAStorageEmulator and then with AzureStorageEmulator. (Maybe there was something else in between, but it doesn't matter as long as you use the latest SDK at the time of writing of this answer.)

A good overview of what's used at the moment can be found in Use the Azure Storage Emulator for Development and Testing.

And regarding your question that would be:

1. Start Azure Storage Emulator to bring up the storage emulator command-line tool.
2. Run AzureStorageEmulator init /forceCreate
