Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Documentation

Deleting a Compute Cluster

You can delete a compute cluster if you no longer need it.

Before you delete a compute cluster, first delete all instances in the cluster.

Required IAM Policy

To use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, you must be granted security access in a policy  by an administrator. This access is required whether you're using the Console or the REST API with an SDK, CLI, or other tool. If you get a message that you don’t have permission or are unauthorized, verify with your administrator what type of access you have and which compartment  to work in.

For administrators: To allow users to do all things with compute clusters in all compartments, write the following policy:

Allow group ComputeClusterUsers to manage compute-clusters in tenancy

You must also allow users to create instances in cluster networks. For a typical policy, see Let users launch compute instances.

Using the Console

  1. Open the navigation menu and click Compute. Under Compute, click Compute Clusters.

  2. Click the compute cluster that you're interested in.
  3. Click Delete, and then confirm when prompted.

Using the API

Use the DeleteComputeCluster operation.

Using the CLI

Use the compute-cluster delete command.

oci compute compute-cluster delete --compute-cluster-id <compute_cluster_OCID>

For information about using the CLI, see Command Line Interface (CLI).
