Delete Cluster

Delete the workload cluster

1. Delete the Kubernetes cluster and wait a few minutes:

   Before deleting the cluster, DKP deletes all Services of type LoadBalancer on the cluster. Deleting the Service deletes the Azure LoadBalancer that backs it. To skip this step, use the flag --delete-kubernetes-resources=false.

   NOTE: Do not skip this step if the Azure Network is managed by DKP. When DKP deletes cluster, it deletes the Network.

   dkp delete cluster --cluster-name=${CLUSTER_NAME} --kubeconfig $HOME/.kube/config
   

   INFO[2021-06-09T11:53:42-07:00] Running cluster delete command                clusterName=my-aks-cluster managementClusterKubeconfig= namespace=default src="cluster/delete.go:95"
   INFO[2021-06-09T11:53:42-07:00] Waiting for cluster to be fully deleted       src="cluster/delete.go:123"
   INFO[2021-06-09T12:14:03-07:00] Deleted default/my-aks-cluster cluster  src="cluster/delete.go:129"
   

Delete the bootstrap cluster

After you have moved the workload resources back to a bootstrap cluster and deleted the workload cluster, you no longer need the bootstrap cluster. You can safely delete the bootstrap cluster with this command:

dkp delete bootstrap --kubeconfig $HOME/.kube/config

INFO[2021-06-09T12:15:20-07:00] Deleting bootstrap cluster                    src="bootstrap/bootstrap.go:182"

Known Limitations

NOTE: Be aware of these limitations in the current release of Konvoy.

• The Konvoy version used to create the workload cluster must match the Konvoy version used to delete the workload cluster.
