Uninstalling service Mesh

edit

To uninstall Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh from an existing Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS instance and remove its resources, you must delete the control plane, delete the Operators, and run commands to manually remove some resources.

Removing the Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh control plane

To uninstall service Mesh from an existing Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS instance, first you delete the service Mesh control plane and the Operators. Then, you run commands to remove residual resources.

Removing the service Mesh control plane using the web console

You can remove the Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh control plane by using the web console.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS web console.

  2. Click the Project menu and select the project where you installed the service Mesh control plane, for example istio-system.

  3. Navigate to Operators → Installed Operators.

  4. Click service Mesh Control Plane under Provided APIs.

  5. Click the serviceMeshControlPlane menu kebab.

  6. Click Delete service Mesh Control Plane.

  7. Click Delete on the confirmation dialog window to remove the serviceMeshControlPlane.

Removing the service Mesh control plane using the CLI

You can remove the Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh control plane by using the CLI. In this example, istio-system is the name of the control plane project.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS CLI.

  2. Run the following command to delete the serviceMeshMemberRoll resource.

    $ oc delete smmr -n istio-system default

  3. Run this command to retrieve the name of the installed serviceMeshControlPlane:

    $ oc get smcp -n istio-system

  4. Replace <name_of_custom_resource> with the output from the previous command, and run this command to remove the custom resource:

    $ oc delete smcp -n istio-system <name_of_custom_resource>

Removing the installed Operators

You must remove the Operators to successfully remove Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh. After you remove the Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh Operator, you must remove the Kiali Operator, the Red Hat OpenShift distributed tracing platform (Jaeger) Operator, and the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator.

edit

Removing the Operators

Follow this procedure to remove the Operators that make up Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh. Repeat the steps for each of the following Operators.

  • Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh

  • Kiali

  • Red Hat OpenShift distributed tracing platform (Jaeger)

  • OpenShift Elasticsearch

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS web console.

  2. From the Operators → Installed Operators page, scroll or type a keyword into the Filter by name to find each Operator. Then, click the Operator name.

  3. On the Operator Details page, select Uninstall Operator from the Actions menu. Follow the prompts to uninstall each Operator.

Clean up Operator resources

You can manually remove resources left behind after removing the Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh Operator using the Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS web console.

Prerequisites

  • An account with cluster administration access. If you use Red Hat OpenShift Dedicated, you must have an account with the dedicated-admin role.

  • Access to the OpenShift CLI (oc).

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS CLI as a cluster administrator.

  2. Run the following commands to clean up resources after uninstalling the Operators. If you intend to keep using distributed tracing platform (Jaeger) as a stand-alone service without service mesh, do not delete the Jaeger resources.

    The OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator is installed in openshift-operators-redhat by default. The other Operators are installed in the openshift-operators namespace by default. If you installed the Operators in another namespace, replace openshift-operators with the name of the project where the Red Hat OpenShift service Mesh Operator was installed.
