Deleting a reserved instance pool

Warning

Reserved instance pools are billable: you pay for the whole unused volume of reserved computing resources of VMs, GPU clusters, and software accelerated networks according to the Yandex Compute Cloud pricing policy. For more information, see Using reserved instance pools.

The reserved instance pool feature is at the Preview stage.

To delete a reserved instance pool:

Management console
CLI
API
  1. In the management console, select the folder the reserved instance pool is in.
  2. Navigate to Compute Cloud.
  3. In the left-hand panel, select VM reserve pools.
  4. In the pool row, click and select Delete.
  5. Confirm the deletion.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, install and initialize it.

The folder used by default is the one specified when creating the CLI profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also specify a different folder for any command using --folder-name or --folder-id. If you access a resource by its name, the search will be limited to the default folder. If you access a resource by its ID, the search will be global, i.e., through all folders based on access permissions.

  1. View the description of the Yandex Cloud CLI command for deleting a reserved instance pool:

    yc compute reserved-instance-pool delete --help
    
  2. Get a list of reserved instance pools in the default folder:

    yc compute reserved-instance-pool list
    

    Result:

    +----------------------+------------+---------------+------+
    |          ID          |    NAME    |    ZONE ID    | SIZE |
    +----------------------+------------+---------------+------+
    | fv48qa9iiq19******** | test-pool1 | ru-central1-a |    1 |
    | fv42fbsrso94******** | test-pool2 | ru-central1-a |    1 |
    +----------------------+------------+---------------+------+
    
  3. Delete the reserved instance pool in the default folder by specifying its name or ID:

    yc compute reserved-instance-pool delete <pool_name_or_ID>
    

    Result:

    done (15s)
    {}
    

    For more information about the yc compute reserved-instance-pool delete command, see the Yandex Cloud CLI reference.

Use the delete REST API method for the ReservedInstancePool resource or the ReservedInstancePoolService/Delete gRPC API call.

Note

When you delete a reserved instance pool, all VMs attached to it will be detached, and the running ones will continue to operate.
