Delete service operation

When deleting a service, the Delete operation automatically deprovisions an existing infrastructure
and frees the resources for use in other services.

To delete a service

Open the infrastructure orchestration console, self service portal, or organization administrator
portal

2.

Select the Services or My Services tab

3.

Select a service and click Delete

When executing the operation, infrastructure orchestration:

After successfully completing a Delete operation, the infrastructure orchestration infrastructure
service is destroyed, deprovisioning all server, network, and storage resources making them
available for new Create Service, Add servers to group, and Add data disk to group operations.

If deprovisioning fails, the infrastructure service is still deleted. When this occurs, the infrastructure
orchestration administrator must manually clean up the servers or disks.
