Uninstalling the Guardium Insights instance

You can remove Guardium Insights by completing the following steps.

1. Export the namespace where Guardium Insights is installed.

   export NAMESPACE=<guardium_insights_namespace>

2. Remove the Guardium Insights instance.

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

   The output is similar to the following example.

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

3. Clean up Guardium Insights dependencies.

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

4. Remove the remaining persistent volume claims.
   • Version 3.3.x

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

   • Version 3.4.x and later

     oc delete `oc get pvc -oname -n ${NAMESPACE} | grep -v icp-mongodb | grep -v common-service-db ` -n ${NAMESPACE}

5. Remove the remaining secrets.

   oc delete `oc get secrets -oname -n ${NAMESPACE} | grep <GI-INSTANCE-NAME> ` -n ${NAMESPACE}

6. Remove the remaining configmaps.

   oc delete `oc get cm -oname -n ${NAMESPACE} | grep <GI-INSTANCE-NAME> ` -n ${NAMESPACE}
   

7. Uninstall the catalogs.

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

8. Uninstall the operators:
   • Version 3.3.x

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

   • Version 3.4.x and later

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

9. Switch to the default namespace (if inside the Guardium Insights namespace) and delete the Guardium Insights namespace:

   oc project default
   oc delete project ${NAMESPACE}

   Important:

   • Deleting this namespace removes IBM Cloud Pak® foundational services and IBM® Common Services because they are installed in the same namespace as Guardium Insights. If you want to keep IBM Cloud Pak foundational services and IBM Common Services in this namespace, skip this step.
   • This action can take a few minutes to complete. During this time, the project appears as Terminating.
10. To uninstall the IBM Common Services operators, complete the steps in Uninstalling foundational services.
