Deleting a Cluster
If you do not need to use a cluster, perform the operations in this section to delete it.
- If your cluster is in arrears, this function may be unavailable. Please top up your account in time.
- A cluster that is read-only or being scaled cannot be deleted. You can delete it only after the scaling is complete or the read-only state is canceled.
- If a cluster has DR tasks, the cluster cannot be deleted. You need to delete the DR tasks and then delete the cluster.
Impact on the System
Deleted clusters cannot be recovered. Additionally, you cannot access user data and automated snapshots in a deleted cluster because the data and snapshots are automatically deleted. If you delete a cluster, its manual snapshots will not be deleted.
