Deleting an Amazon ECS cluster
If you are finished using a cluster, you can delete it. After you delete the cluster, it
transitions to the INACTIVE state. Clusters with an INACTIVE
status may remain discoverable in your account for a period of time. However, this behavior
is subject to change in the future, so you should not rely on INACTIVE clusters
persisting.
Before you delete a cluster, you must perform the following operations:
-
Delete all services in the cluster. For more information, see Deleting an Amazon ECS service using the console.
-
Stop all currently running tasks. For more information, see Stopping an Amazon ECS task.
-
Deregister all registered container instances in the cluster. For more information, see Deregistering an Amazon ECS container instance.
-
Delete the namespace. For more information, see Deleting namespaces in the AWS Cloud Map Developer Guide.
