Detaching a cluster means deregistering it from Google Cloud
Fleet management and removing the associated
software from your cluster. You can detach the cluster with the Google Cloud CLI
or the Google Cloud console.
Providing the optional flag --ignore-errors forces the cluster
to detach even if some in-cluster resources can't be deleted. Including the
optional --allow-missing flag means that the delete request returns
a success code even if the cluster can't be found:
Select the Google Cloud project that the cluster is in.
Click the name of the cluster you want to detach, and then select
View more details in the side panel.
Near the top of the window, click delete
Delete.
When prompted to confirm, enter the name of the cluster and
click Confirm.
When you detach a cluster, all Google Cloud resources related to the cluster,
such as the fleet membership resources and workload identity pool OIDC
providers are deleted. Any GKE Enterprise features installed in
your cluster, such as Config Sync and Cloud Service Mesh, are also deleted. The
Kubernetes cluster itself isn't deleted.
