Uninstalling the OpenShift Pipelines operator and the OpenShift Pipelines

To uninstall pipelines you need to first delete the custom resource (added by default when you install the operator), and then uninstall the pipeline operator. Uninstalling the Pipelines operator will not remove the OpenShift Pipelines components created by default when the operator is installed.

Uninstalling the OpenShift Pipeline components and custom resource

Procedure

Uninstall the custom resource, created by default when you install the Pipelines Operator, as follows:

  1. In the Administrator perspective of the Web Console, navigate to Operators > Installed Operators.

  2. In the Project drop-down select the OpenShift- Operators project.

  3. Click on the OpenShift Pipelines Operator to see the overview of the operator.

  4. Click on the OpenShift Pipelines config tab to see the Configs screen.

  5. Click the Options menu {kebab} adjacent to the cluster config listed in the Configs screen, and select Delete Config.

    Deleting the cluster (instance of config) custom resource, will delete the openshift-pipelines components and all the Tasks and Pipelines on the cluster will be lost.

  6. Click Delete to confirm the deletion of the custom resource.
