Uninstalling NetBackup environment and the operators
You can uninstall the NetBackup primary, media, and MSDP Scaleout environment and the operators as required. You need to uninstall the NetBackup environment before you uninstall the operators.
Note:
Replace the environment custom resource names as per your configuration in the steps below.
To uninstall the NetBackup environment
- To remove the environment components from the application namespace, run:
$ kubectl delete environment.netbackup.veritas.com/environment-sample --namespace <namespce_name>
- Wait for all the pods, services and resources to be terminated. To confirm, run
$ kubectl get --namespace <namespce_name> all,environments,primaryservers,mediaservers,msdpscaleouts
You should get a message that no resources were found in the nb-example namespace.
- To identify and delete any outstanding persistent volume claims, run the following:
$ kubectl get pvc --namespace <namespce_name>
$ kubectl delete pvc <pvc-name>
To delete all PVCs under the same namespace, run the following command:
kubectl delete pvc -n <namespace> --all
- To locate and delete any persistent volumes created by the deployment, run:
$ kubectl get pv
$ kubectl delete pv <pv-name> --grace-period=0 --force
Note:
Certain storage drivers may cause physical volumes to get stuck in the terminating state. To resolve this issue, remove the finalizer, using the command: $ kubectl patch pv <pv-name> -p '{"metadata":{"finalizers":null}}
Note:
(EKS-specific) Navigate to mounted EFS directory and delete the content from
primary_catalogfolder by running the rm -rf /efs/ command. - To delete the application namespace, run:
$ kubectl delete ns <namespace name>
To uninstall the operators
- To uninstall the NetBackup operator run the following command from the installation directory.
$ kubectl delete -k operator
- To uninstall the MSDP Scaleout operator and remove the operator's namespace, run.
$ kubectl-msdp delete --namespace <namespace name>
Note:
Do not remove the MSDP Scaleout operator first as it may corrupt the NetBackup operator.
