Uninstalling the SR-IOV Network Operator

To uninstall the SR-IOV Network Operator, you must delete any running SR-IOV workloads, uninstall the Operator, and delete the webhooks that the Operator used.

Uninstall the SR-IOV Network Operator

You can remove the SR-IOV Network Operator from your cluster by uninstalling the Operator. This ensures that the Operator and its associated resources are deleted when you no longer need to manage SR-IOV network devices.

Prerequisites

• You have access to an OpenShift Container Platform cluster using an account with cluster-admin permissions.
• You have the SR-IOV Network Operator installed.

Procedure

1. Delete all SR-IOV custom resources (CRs):

   $ oc delete sriovnetwork -n openshift-sriov-network-operator --all
   

   $ oc delete sriovnetworknodepolicy -n openshift-sriov-network-operator --all
   

   $ oc delete sriovibnetwork -n openshift-sriov-network-operator --all
   

   $ oc delete sriovoperatorconfigs -n openshift-sriov-network-operator --all
   

2. Follow the instructions in the "Deleting Operators from a cluster" section to remove the SR-IOV Network Operator from your cluster.

3. Delete the SR-IOV custom resource definitions that remain in the cluster after the SR-IOV Network Operator is uninstalled:

   $ oc delete crd sriovibnetworks.sriovnetwork.openshift.io
   

   $ oc delete crd sriovnetworknodepolicies.sriovnetwork.openshift.io
   

   $ oc delete crd sriovnetworknodestates.sriovnetwork.openshift.io
   

   $ oc delete crd sriovnetworkpoolconfigs.sriovnetwork.openshift.io
   

   $ oc delete crd sriovnetworks.sriovnetwork.openshift.io
   

   $ oc delete crd sriovoperatorconfigs.sriovnetwork.openshift.io
   

4. Delete the SR-IOV Network Operator namespace:

   $ oc delete namespace openshift-sriov-network-operator
