Deleting a Apache Hive™ Metastore cluster

You can delete a Apache Hive™ Metastore cluster along with all its stored data. Before that, disable cluster deletion protection if enabled.

Management console
CLI
REST API
gRPC API
  1. In the management console, go to the folder with the cluster.
  2. Navigate to Yandex MetaData Hub.
  3. In the left-hand panel, select Metastore.
  4. Click for the cluster and select Delete.
  5. Confirm cluster 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.

To delete a Apache Hive™ Metastore cluster, run this command:

yc managed-metastore cluster delete <cluster_name_or_ID>

You can get the cluster ID and name with the list of clusters in the folder.

  1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it into an environment variable:

    export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
    
  2. Call the Cluster.Delete method, e.g., via the following cURL request:

    curl \
        --request DELETE \
        --header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
        --url 'https://metastore.api.cloud.yandex.net/managed-metastore/v1/clusters/<cluster_ID>'
    

    You can get the cluster ID with the list of clusters in the folder.

  3. Check the server response to make sure your request was successful.

  1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it into an environment variable:

    export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
    
  2. Clone the cloudapi repository:

    cd ~/ && git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/yandex-cloud/cloudapi
    

    Below, we assume that the repository contents reside in the ~/cloudapi/ directory.

  3. Call the ClusterService.Delete method, e.g., via the following gRPCurl request:

    grpcurl \
        -format json \
        -import-path ~/cloudapi/ \
        -import-path ~/cloudapi/third_party/googleapis/ \
        -proto ~/cloudapi/yandex/cloud/metastore/v1/cluster_service.proto \
        -rpc-header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
        -d '{
                "cluster_id": "<cluster_ID>"
            }' \
        metastore.api.cloud.yandex.net:443 \
        yandex.cloud.metastore.v1.ClusterService.Delete
    

    You can get the cluster ID with the list of clusters in the folder.

  4. Check the server response to make sure your request was successful.
