Delete an Affinity Group

The Affinity Group Deletion functionality allows you to remove unused or outdated affinity groups from your cloud environment, helping you maintain a clean and organized resource structure.

This guide walks you through the step-by-step process to safely delete an affinity group through the Cloud Management Portal.

Important Pre-Deletion Considerations​

  • Irreversible Action: Once an affinity group is deleted, it cannot be recovered. Ensure you are certain before proceeding.

  • VM Association Check: An affinity group must not be assigned to any active or stopped VMs before deletion. Remove the group from all associated VMs first.

1. Accessing the Affinity Group Section :​

  • Log in to your Cloud Management Portal using your authorized credentials.

  • From the left navigation pane, go to:

    Compute → Affinity Group

  • Here, you’ll find a list of all affinity groups available under your account.

2. Locate the Affinity Group :​

  • Browse the list or use the search functionality to find the specific affinity group you wish to remove.

3. Initiate the Deletion Process :​

  • Once identified, click the Delete icon under the Actions section corresponding to the selected affinity group.

4. Confirm the Deletion :​

  • A confirmation popup window will appear with the message:
    "Are you sure you want to delete?"

  • If you are certain, click on the OK button to proceed.

  • If you wish to abort the deletion, click on the Cancel button to exit without making changes.
