Deleting or Unsubscribing from Dedicated Load Balancers

You can delete or unsubscribe load balancers if you on longer need them.

You can enable recycle bin to retain deleted or unsubscribed load balancers for a time period that you specify and prevent accidental deletions.
Back up the data if you have not enabled recycle bin. Once you delete or unsubscribe from a load balancer, the related data will be immediately deleted and cannot be restored.

If modification protection is enabled for a load balancer, you need to disable modification protection on the Summary tab of the load balancer before deleting it.
If modification protection is enabled for a listener added to a load balancer, you need to disable modification protection on the Summary tab of the listener before deleting the load balancer.
If modification protection is enabled for a backend server group associated with a load balancer, you need to disable modification protection on the Basic Information area in the Summary tab of the backend server group before deleting the load balancer.

When deleting load balancers, you can select the following options based on your service requirements:

Release the EIPs together to avoid unnecessary charges.
Delete the associated backend server groups. (If a backend server group is associated with other load balancers, it cannot be deleted.)

Go to the load balancer list page.
On the displayed page, locate the target load balancer and choose More > Delete in the Operation column.
A confirmation dialog box is displayed.
Select the following options as required:
- Release the EIPs together to avoid unnecessary charges.
- Delete the associated backend server groups. (If a backend server group is associated with other load balancers, it cannot be deleted.)
In the displayed dialog box, enter DELETE.
Click OK.
