Uninstall Che

Remove Che and all related user data from an Kubernetes cluster by using the chectl management tool.

This page is for platform administrators who install, configure, and manage Che on Kubernetes clusters. To learn more about common roles and example tasks referenced in Che documentation, see Common user roles and tasks.

Uninstalling Che removes all Che-related user data.
Prerequisites
Procedure

  1. Remove the Che instance:

    $ chectl server:delete

    The --delete-namespace option removes the Che namespace.

    The --delete-all option removes the DevWorkspace Operator and the related resources.

    Standard operating procedure (SOP) for removing DevWorkspace Operator manually without chectl is available in the OpenShift Container Platform official documentation.
Verification

  • Verify that the Che namespace has been removed:

    kubectl get namespace eclipse-che

    The expected output is NotFound.
