Abstract

This document provides instructions for deleting the Argo CD instances added to the default namespace of the OpenShift GitOps Operator. It also discusses how to remove the OpenShift GitOps Operator from your cluster.

Chapter 1. Uninstalling Red Hat OpenShift GitOps

Uninstalling the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator is a two-step process:

  1. Delete the Argo CD instances from the openshift-gitops namespace and any other namespaces where they were created.
  2. Uninstall the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator.

Uninstalling only the Operator will not remove the Argo CD instances created.

1.1. Deleting the Argo CD instances

Delete the Argo CD instances added to the namespace of the GitOps Operator.

Procedure

  1. In the terminal, run the following command: 

    $ oc delete gitopsservice cluster -n openshift-gitops
    Note

    You cannot delete an Argo CD instance from the web console UI.

    After the command runs successfully, the Argo CD instances will be deleted from the openshift-gitops namespace.

  2. Delete any other Argo CD instances from other namespaces using the same command: 

    $ oc delete gitopsservice cluster -n <namespace>

1.2. Uninstalling the GitOps Operator

You can uninstall the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator from the OperatorHub by using the web console.

Procedure

  1. From the Operators → OperatorHub page, use the Filter by keyword box to search for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps tile.
  2. Click the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps tile. The Operator tile indicates it is installed.
  3. In the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps descriptor page, click Uninstall.
