6 Uninstalling SCP

This chapter provides information about uninstalling SCP.

6.1 Uninstalling SCP Using Helm

To uninstall SCP using Helm, perform the following procedure on a server that has access to Kubectl and Helm commands.

1. To uninstall SCP, run the following command:

   helm uninstall <release_name> --namespace <namespace>

   Where, <release_name> is a name provided by the user to identify the Helm deployment.

   Helm keeps a record of its releases, so you can still reactivate the release after uninstalling it.

   Example:

   helm uninstall ocscp --namespace scp

Note:

By default, SCP uses Helm 3.

6.2 Deleting Kubernetes Namespace

This chapter describes how to delete Kubernetes namespace where SCP is deployed.

1. To delete kubernetes namespace, run the following command:

   kubectl delete namespace <release_namespace>

   Where, <release_namespace> is the deployment namespace used by the Helm command.

   Example:

   kubectl delete namespace ocscp

   DROP USER IF EXISTS scpprivilegedusr';

   Remove Application User:

   Caution:
