Deleting service instances
Uninstalling the service

Deleting service instances

Before you uninstall OpenPages, you must delete any service instances that are associated with OpenPages to ensure that each instance releases the resources that it reserved.

Who needs to complete this task?: A user with the Manage service instances permission must complete this task.

When do you need to complete this task?: Complete this task before you uninstall OpenPages.

From the IBM Software Hub web client:

Log in to the web client as a user with sufficient permissions to complete the task.
From the menu, select Services > Instances.
Filter the list to show the openpages type.
Delete each openpages instance in the list.

Uninstalling the service

To uninstall OpenPages:

Log the cpd-cli in to the Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform cluster:
```
${CPDM_OC_LOGIN}
```
Remember: CPDM_OC_LOGIN is an alias for the cpd-cli manage login-to-ocp command.

Delete the custom resource and operator for OpenPages.

cpd-cli manage uninstall-components \
--instance_ns=${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} \
--components=openpages \
--include_dependency=true

Wait for the cpd-cli to return the following message:

[SUCCESS]... The uninstall-components command ran successfully

For tethered uninstall, in step 2, use the following command instead:

./cpd_cli_linux/cpd-cli manage delete-cr /
--cpd_instance_ns=${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} /
--components=openpages / 
--tethered_instance_ns=${PROJECT_CPD_INSTANCE_TETHERED} / 
--include_dependency=true
