Cleaning up deployed environments
If you no longer need your deployed IBM Spectrum LSF cluster, you can clean it up from your environment. The process is threefold: verify that the cluster is free of running jobs or working compute nodes, destroy all the associated VPC resources and remove them from your IBM Cloud account, and remove the workspace.
Verifying that the cluster is free of running jobs and working compute nodes
Verify that it is safe to destroy resources:
-
As the
lsfadmin
user, close all LSF queues and kill all jobs:badmin qclose all bkill -u all 0
-
Wait ten minutes (this value is the default idle time), and then check for running jobs:
bjobs -u all
Look for a
No unfinished job found
message. -
Check that no working compute nodes (only management nodes) are listed:
bhosts -w
If the cluster has no running jobs and no working compute nodes, then it is safe to destroy resources from this environment.
Destroying resources by using the UI
- In the IBM Cloud console, navigate to Projects > project_name > Configurations > project_configuration_name > Resources tab, and click the link for the workspace, and select Actions > Destroy resources to delete all of the related VPC resources that were deployed as part of that workspace.
- If you select the option to destroy resources, decide whether you want to destroy all of them. This action cannot be undone.
- Confirm the action by entering the workspace name in the text box and click Destroy.
If successful, the Jobs view, you should see a Workspace destroy successful
message. If unsuccessful, Schematics throws an error and shows a failure status.
Deleting a workspace by using the UI
- In the IBM Cloud console, the navigate to Projects > project_name > Configurations > project_configuration_name > Resources tab, and click the link for the workspace, and select Actions > Delete workspace to delete the workspace.
- Confirm the action by entering the workspace name in the text box and click Delete.
If unsuccessful, Schematics throws an error and shows a failure status.
Destroying resources by using the CLI
-
Run the following command to remove your VPC resources from your workspace:
ibmcloud schematics destroy --id <workspace_ID>
You can monitor the log files to view the deletion progress of all IBM Cloud resources.
Deleting a workspace by using the CLI
-
Run the following command to delete your workspace:
ibmcloud schematics workspace delete --id <workspace_ID>
You can monitor the log files to view the deletion progress of your workspace.
If unsuccessful, Schematics throws an error and shows a failure status.
