Disabling the control plane machine set

    When you delete the CR, the Control Plane Machine Set Operator performs cleanup operations and disables the control plane machine set. The Operator then removes the CR from the cluster and creates an inactive control plane machine set with default settings.

    To stop managing control plane machines with the control plane machine set on your cluster, you must delete the ControlPlaneMachineSet custom resource (CR).

    Procedure

    Verification

    • Check the control plane machine set custom resource state. A result of indicates that the removal and replacement process is successful. A ControlPlaneMachineSet CR exists but is not activated.

    You can verify the existence and state of the ControlPlaneMachineSet custom resource (CR).

    Procedure

      1. $ oc get controlplanemachineset.machine.openshift.io cluster \
      • A result of indicates that the ControlPlaneMachineSet CR exists and is activated. No administrator action is required.

      • A result of Inactive indicates that a ControlPlaneMachineSet CR exists but is not activated.

      • A result of NotFound indicates that there is no existing CR.
