Deleting a MongoDB cluster
Before deleting a cluster
-
Disable deletion protection for the cluster if it is enabled.
-
You will need the cluster ID when restoring a deleted cluster from a backup.
After you delete a database cluster, its backups will be kept for seven days for recovery purposes.
Deleting a cluster
- Open the folder page
in the management console. - Select Managed Service for MongoDB.
- Click
for the relevant cluster and select Delete.
If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.
The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name
or --folder-id
parameter.
To delete a cluster, run the command:
yc managed-mongodb cluster delete <cluster_name_or_ID>
You can request the cluster ID and name with a list of clusters in the folder.
Terraform
For more information about the provider resources, see the documentation on the Terraform
If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.
If you don't have Terraform, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.
To delete a cluster created using Terraform:
-
In the command line, go to the folder that houses the current Terraform configuration file with an infrastructure plan.
-
Delete the resources using this command:
terraform destroy
Alert
Terraform will delete all the resources you created using it, such as clusters, networks, subnets, and VMs.
-
Type
yes
and press Enter.
Timeouts
The Terraform provider sets the following timeouts for Managed Service for MongoDB cluster operations:
- Creating a cluster, including by restoring one from a backup: 30 minutes.
- Editing a cluster: 60 minutes.
Operations exceeding the set timeout are interrupted.
How do I change these limits?
Add the timeouts
block to the cluster description, for example:
resource "yandex_mdb_mongodb_cluster" "<cluster_name>" {
...
timeouts {
create = "1h30m" # An hour and a half
update = "2h" # Two hours
}
}
To delete a cluster, use the delete REST API method for the Cluster resource or the ClusterService/Delete gRPC API call and provide the cluster ID in the clusterId
request parameter.
You can get the cluster ID with a list of clusters in the folder.
