Uninstalling the Guardium Insights instance

This topic describes the steps that you take to remove Guardium® Insights.

Important: The uninstallation steps are irreversible. Make sure you back up any data that you wish to keep or move to a new installation.

Procedure

Export the namespace where Guardium Insights is installed:
```
export NAMESPACE=<guardium_insights_namespace>
```

Remove the Guardium Insights instance:

oc delete `oc get guardiuminsights -oname -n ${NAMESPACE}` -n ${NAMESPACE}

The output should be similar to:

guardiuminsights.gi.ds.isc.ibm.com "staging" deleted

Clean up Guardium Insights dependencies:

oc delete $(oc get tenantguc -oname) || true
oc delete $(oc get tenantminisnif -oname) || true

Optional: Remove remaining persistent volume claims:

oc delete `oc get pvc -oname -n ${NAMESPACE}` -n ${NAMESPACE}

Uninstall the operators:

For Guardium Insights 3.2.10 and later:

oc ibm-pak launch $CASE_NAME \
  --version $CASE_VERSION \
  --namespace ${NAMESPACE} \
  --inventory install \
  --action uninstall-operator \
  --args "--registry cp.icr.io --user ${CP_REPO_USER} --pass ${CP_REPO_PASS} --secret ibm-entitlement-key --inputDir ${LOCAL_CASE_DIR}"

For Guardium Insights 3.2.8 and earlier:

cloudctl case launch \
  --case ${LOCAL_CASE_DIR}/${CASE_ARCHIVE} \
  --namespace ${NAMESPACE} \
  --inventory install \
  --action uninstall-operator \
  --tolerance 1

Uninstall the catalogs:

For Guardium Insights 3.2.10 and later:

oc ibm-pak launch $CASE_NAME \
--version $CASE_VERSION \
--namespace ${NAMESPACE} \
--inventory install \
--action uninstall-catalog \
--args "--inputDir ${LOCAL_CASE_DIR}"

For Guardium Insights 3.2.8 and earlier:

cloudctl case launch \
--case ${LOCAL_CASE_DIR}/${CASE_ARCHIVE} \
--namespace openshift-marketplace \
--inventory install \
--action uninstall-catalog \
--tolerance 1
--args "registry cp.icr.io --user ${CP_REPO_USER} --pass ${CP_REPO_PASS} --secret ibm-entitlement-key --inputDir ${LOCAL_CASE_DIR}"

Switch to the default namespace (if inside the Guardium Insights namespace) and delete the Guardium Insights namespace:
```
oc project default
oc delete project ${NAMESPACE}
```
Note: This action may take a few minutes to complete. During this time the project will appear as Terminating.
