Use VMware Tanzu Mission Control to disable data protection and remove Velero from your cluster.
If you decide that you no longer need to back up data resources in a given cluster using Tanzu Mission Control, you can remove the data protection extension and Velero from your cluster.
Although this procedure disables your ability to perform backup and restore actions, disabling data protection does not, by default, remove the backups that you have already created. Existing backup files remain in the storage location identified by the data protection credential unless you explicitly choose to delete them.
Prerequisites
- To disable data protection, you must be associated with the cluster.admin role in the cluster.
Procedure
Results
When you click Disable, Tanzu Mission Control removes the data protection extension and Velero from your cluster. After you disable data protection for a cluster, you can no longer perform actions like backing up and restoring data resources in your cluster.
