We   would like to remove EBS volumes which were used for cold store and DM summary Docs is not overly clear on the recommended approach https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.3.4/Indexer/MigratetoSmartStore

Here are the steps that could work for you.

  1. Enable smartstore on indexes
  2. Ensure all buckets have been replicated to smartstore ( migration complete )
  3. Place indexer into offline mode
  4. Delete ALL buckets from coldpath
  5. Re-point coldpath to hot_warm or homePath volume.
  6. Remove cold store EBS
  7. Restart splunkd
  8. Run splunk boot strap coommand on the Cluster Master

Run /opt/splunk/bin/splunk _internal call /services/cluster/master/control/control/init_recreate_index -method POST” on cluster master
