Delete a Cluster

Delete a physical cluster when you no longer need its compute and cache resources. This procedure applies to SaaS and BYOC warehouses.

Deleting a cluster removes its compute resources and cached data. The warehouse and stored data are retained.

Warning:

You cannot undo cluster deletion.

Before you begin​

  • You need permission to manage compute resources in the warehouse.
  • You can delete a cluster only when its status is Running, Stopped, or Suspended.
  • At least one physical cluster must be retained in each warehouse. To remove the last physical cluster, delete the entire warehouse from Warehouse Settings.
  • If the physical cluster is mounted as the active or standby cluster of a virtual cluster, replace it in the virtual cluster or delete the virtual cluster first.
  • Route workloads and connections to another physical cluster before deletion.

If Delete is disabled, point to the button to view the applicable restriction.
