Delete your stateless workloads using standard Kubernetes deletion methodologies.

Before you begin

To run commands against a Kubernetes cluster, ensure you have the following resources:

1. Locate the Kubernetes cluster name, or ask your Platform Administrator what the cluster name is.

2. Sign in and generate the kubeconfig file for the Kubernetes cluster if you don't have one.

3. Use the kubeconfig path of the Kubernetes cluster to replace KUBERNETES_CLUSTER_KUBECONFIG in these instructions.

To get the required permissions to delete stateless workloads, ask your Organization IAM Admin to grant you the Namespace Admin role (namespace-admin) in your project namespace.

Delete a deployment

To delete a Deployment object, run:

kubectl --kubeconfig KUBERNETES_CLUSTER_KUBECONFIG \
    -n NAMESPACE \
    delete deployment DEPLOYMENT_NAME

Replace the following:

• KUBERNETES_CLUSTER_KUBECONFIG: the kubeconfig file for the cluster.

• NAMESPACE: the project namespace of the container workload.

• DEPLOYMENT_NAME: the name of the deployment to delete.
