Uninstall Druva Backup Operator
Uninstallation
To uninstall Druva Backup Operator, execute the following command:
helm uninstall druva-backup-operator -n druva-system
Delete objects
To delete specific objects, execute the following command:
kubectl delete <objecttype>
Residual objects
In some cases, residual artifacts continue to reside in the system even once DBO uninstallation is complete. This might include objects such as druva-cluster, applicationgroup per, namespacedruva-system namespace, and secret per namespace.
Workaround
This issue occurs because some residual objects may not be removed using the kubectl delete command. As a workaround, you can edit the object definition to remove the value in the finalizers key.
Note: Finalizers are keys on resources that signal pre-delete operations and allow controllers to implement asynchronous pre-delete hooks. Finalizers are designed to alert controllers on the cleanup operations to perform prior to removing a resource. A finalizer can be leveraged when deleting an associated external resource upon deletion of an object from Kubernetes.
-
To edit the finalizers key, execute the following command and remove the finalizers:
kubectl edit <objecttype> <objectname> -n <namespace>
-
Save changes and then reattempt the deletion of residual objects.
