Destroying a hosted cluster on bare metal

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 bare metal by using the CLI

If you created a hosted cluster by using the command-line interface (CLI), you can destroy that hosted cluster and its back-end resources by running a command.

Procedure

  • Delete the hosted cluster and its back-end resources by running the following command:

    $ oc delete -f <hosted_cluster_config>.yaml

    Specify the name of the configuration YAML file that was rendered when you created the hosted cluster.

    If you created the hosted cluster without specifying the --render and --render-sensitive flags in its configuration file, you must remove its back-end resources manually.

Procedure

  1. In the console, click Infrastructure → Clusters.

  2. On the Clusters page, select the cluster that you want to destroy.
