Destroying a hosted cluster on AWS

You might want to remove a hosted cluster if you are no longer using it, you are trying to reduce resources, or the hosted cluster is experiencing issues that are difficult to resolve.

Destroying a hosted cluster on AWS by using the CLI

To delete a hosted cluster and its managed cluster resource from hosted control planes on Amazon Web Services (AWS), use the command-line interface (CLI).

Procedure

  1. Delete the managed cluster resource on multicluster engine Operator by running the following command:

    $ oc delete managedcluster <hosted_cluster_name>

    Replace <hosted_cluster_name> with the name of your cluster.

  2. Delete the hosted cluster and its backend resources by running the following command:

    $ hcp destroy cluster aws  \
  --name <hosted_cluster_name> \
  --infra-id <infra_id> \
  --role-arn <arn_role> \
  --sts-creds <path_to_sts_credential_file> \
  --base-domain <base_domain>

    where:

    • <hosted_cluster_name> specifies the name of your hosted cluster, for example, my-hosted-cluster.

    • <infra_id> specifies the infrastructure name for your hosted cluster.

    • <arn_role> specifies the Amazon Resource Name (ARN), for example, arn:aws:iam::820196288204:role/myrole.

    • <path_to_sts_credential_file> specifies the path to your AWS Security Token Service (STS) credentials file, for example, /home/user/sts-creds/sts-creds.json.

    • <base_domain> specifies your base domain, for example, example.com.

      If your session token for AWS Security Token Service (STS) is expired, retrieve the STS credentials in a JSON file named sts-creds.json by running the following command:

      $ aws sts get-session-token --output json > sts-creds.json
