IBM Cloud Pak® QRadar Suite Software uninstall hangs on a cluster

When you remove QRadar® Suite Software resources, the uninstall hangs on a cluster.

Symptoms

QRadar Suite Software uninstall hangs and does not complete when you run the following command:
oc ibm-pak launch -t 1 $CASE_NAME --version $CASE_VERSION --inventory ibmSecurityOperatorSetup --namespace $CP4S_NAMESPACE --action uninstall

Diagnosing the problem

The finalizers for a resource hang on the cluster and looks like the following example:
-------------Uninstalling Noobaa Resources-------------
validatingwebhookconfiguration.admissionregistration.k8s.io "admissionwebhook.noobaa.io-88ggc" deleted
noobaa.noobaa.io "noobaa" deleted

Resolving the problem

  1. Run the uninstall with the --force tag, as follows:
    oc ibm-pak launch -t 1 $CASE_NAME --version $CASE_VERSION --inventory ibmSecurityOperatorSetup --namespace $CP4S_NAMESPACE --action uninstall --args "--force"
