DeleteFleet

Deletes all resources and information related to a fleet and shuts down any currently running fleet instances, including those in remote locations.

Note

If the fleet being deleted has a VPC peering connection, you first need to get a valid authorization (good for 24 hours) by calling CreateVpcPeeringAuthorization. You don't need to explicitly delete the VPC peering connection.

To delete a fleet, specify the fleet ID to be terminated. During the deletion process, the fleet status is changed to DELETING. When completed, the status switches to TERMINATED and the fleet event FLEET_DELETED is emitted.
