Destroy the created resources🔗

If you have previously used the Cloud Pak Deployer to create assets on IBM Cloud, AWS or Azure, you can destroy the assets with the same command.

Prepare for destroy🔗

Prepare for destroy on IBM Cloud🔗

Set environment variables for IBM Cloud🔗

export IBM_CLOUD_API_KEY=your_api_key

Optional: set environment variables for deployer config and status directories. If not specified, respectively $HOME/cpd-config and $HOME/cpd-status will be used.

export STATUS_DIR=$HOME/cpd-status
export CONFIG_DIR=$HOME/cpd-config

• IBM_CLOUD_API_KEY: This is the API key you generated using your IBM Cloud account, this is a 40+ character string
• STATUS_DIR: The directory where the Cloud Pak Deployer keeps all status information and log files. Please note that if you have chosen to use a File Vault, the directory specified must be the one you used when you created the environment
• CONFIG_DIR: Directory that holds the configuration. This must be the same directory you used when you created the environment

Prepare for destroy on AWS🔗

Set environment variables for AWS🔗

We assume that the vault already holds the mandatory secrets for AWS Access Key, Secret Access Key and ROSA login token.

export STATUS_DIR=$HOME/cpd-status
export CONFIG_DIR=$HOME/cpd-config

• STATUS_DIR: The directory where the Cloud Pak Deployer keeps all status information and log files. Please note that if you have chosen to use a File Vault, the directory specified must be the one you used when you created the environment
• CONFIG_DIR: Directory that holds the configuration. This must be the same directory you used when you created the environment

Prepare for destroy on Azure🔗

Set environment variables for Azure🔗

We assume that the vault already holds the mandatory secrets for Azure - Service principal id and its password, tenant id and ARO login token.

export STATUS_DIR=$HOME/cpd-status
export CONFIG_DIR=$HOME/cpd-config

• STATUS_DIR: The directory where the Cloud Pak Deployer keeps all status information and log files. Please note that if you have chosen to use a File Vault, the directory specified must be the one you used when you created the environment
• CONFIG_DIR: Directory that holds the configuration. This must be the same directory you used when you created the environment

Run the Cloud Pak Deployer to destroy the assets🔗

./cp-deploy.sh env destroy --confirm-destroy

Please ensure you specify the same extra (dynamic) variables that you used when you ran the env apply command.

When running the command, the container will start as a daemon and the command will tail-follow the logs. You can press Ctrl-C at any time to interrupt the logging but the container will continue to run in the background.

You can return to view the logs as follows:

./cp-deploy.sh env logs

If you need to interrupt the process, use CTRL-C to stop the logging output and then use:

./cp-deploy.sh env kill

Finishing up🔗

Once the process has finished successfully, you can delete the status directory.
