Uninstall Chef 360 Platform

When uninstalling an implicit Chef 360 Platform cluster, the assumption is that the process of installing is opaque to our customers. The same holds true for the uninstall process. This means that you have no ability to back up items from an implicit cluster.

Warning

Uninstalling is a destructive act. The implicit Kubernetes clusters uninstall process below “burns the cluster down”, leaving nothing usable behind.

Prerequisites

Before you begin you need:

Note

Uninstall all installed skills and the Node Management agent from your nodes as part of uninstalling Chef 360 Platform. For more information, see the documentation on removing skills.

Uninstall an implicit Chef 360 Platform cluster

Follow these steps to uninstall a Chef 360 Platform implicit cluster:

  1. Secure Shell (SSH) into (or otherwise access) the terminal where Chef 360 Platform was installed.

  2. Go to the directory containing the Chef 360 Platform binary.

  3. Enter the implicit cluster’s shell:

    sudo ./chef-360 shell
    
  4. Execute a node reset:

    sudo ./chef-360 reset
    
  5. Delete the Chef 360 Platform resources:

    rm -f chef-360* license.yaml
    

    This rm command and the chef-360* glob removes the tarball, the implicit cluster binary, and, (if it exists) the airgap bundle.

  6. Reboot the server:

    sudo reboot
