Deleting a DB Instance¶
Scenarios¶
This section guides you on how to delete a DB instance no longer used to release resources. You can delete the following types of DB instances:
Cluster instance
Replica set instance
Single node instance
Important
DB instances cannot be deleted when operations are being performed on them. They can be deleted only after the operations are completed.
After you delete an instance, all nodes in the instance are also deleted.
After you delete the DB instance, all data in it and all automated backups are automatically deleted and cannot be restored. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
By default, all manual backups are retained in DDS. You can use a backup to restore a deleted instance.
Procedure¶
On the Instance Management page, locate the target DB instance and choose More > Delete in the Operation column.
In the displayed dialog box, click Yes.
