Cleaning workspace

Remember to delete your workflow again to avoid additional charges: Run this until you get a message indicating there are no more workflows.

argo delete -n argo @latest

Delete the argo namespace:

kubectl delete ns argo

If you are working on Cloud shell, it will keep your local files, such as yaml files that you downloaded. If you plan to use them afterwards, you can leave them there.

Delete your disk:

gcloud compute disks delete DISK_NAME [DISK_NAME …] [--region=REGION     | --zone=ZONE]

Demo delete disk

To delete the disk ‘gce-nfs-disk-1’ in zone ‘europe-west1-b’ that was used as an example in this workshop, run:

gcloud compute disks delete gce-nfs-disk-1 --zone=europe-west1-b

Delete cluster

• Click on the delete button of your cluster:

• Confirm deletion:

• Standby to see the complete deletion of the cluster: Perfect you’re ready to start over

Key Points

• Cleaning your workspace in periods of time while you’re not running workflows will save you money.

• With a couple of commands it is easy to get back to square one.
