Deleting a resiliency group

When you delete a resiliency group from Resiliency Platform management, you can no longer monitor, manage, or protect it using Resiliency Platform. Deleting the resiliency group from Resiliency Platform has no effect on the underlying assets.

If the resiliency group was configured for protection using Resiliency Platform Data Mover replication, then Resiliency Platform Data Mover is unconfigured before the resiliency group is deleted. During the delete operation you can choose to delete the disks on the production data center and also choose to ignore any subtasks that fail. If you choose to ignore the failed subtasks, you need to fix them manually. Resiliency groups can be deleted from production data center, on-premises recovery data center, or from cloud recovery data center.

To successfully complete the delete operation ensure the following:

  • The assets on the production data center are running and accessible.

  • The xprtld daemon on the virtual machines is running.

On successful completion of the delete operation, you will notice the following:

  • During the operation, replication is stopped and Veritas Replication Sets are deleted on gateways and on-premises virtual machines.

  • Journal disks are removed from the virtual machines on the production data center and cloud virtual machines instances are deleted.

  • All the cloud virtual machines disks that are attached to the cloud Replication Gateway are deleted.

Note:

Replication Gateway pairs are not deleted during the delete operation. If required you can delete the pair from the Gateway Pair details page.

If you are deleting a resiliency group that was configured for protection using Resiliency Platform Data Mover replication and is active on cloud, then you can select the following options:

  • During the delete operation you can choose to delete the disks on the production data center.

    If the check box is not selected, then you need to manually identify the disk, having the vxtap kernel module, which is attached to the replication gateway and delete it.

  • You can choose to ignore any subtasks that fail during the delete operation.

    If you choose to ignore the failed subtasks, then you need to fix them manually.

To delete a resiliency group

  1. Navigate

    Assets (navigation pane) > Resiliency Groups tab

  2. Locate the resiliency group. Use filters or Search as needed.

  3. On the row for the resiliency group, select the vertical ellipsis > Delete.

    You can also perform operations from the Details page

  4. Confirm the deletion.
