Required. The name of the node pool to delete. Format: projects/{project}/locations/{location}/vmwareClusters/{cluster}/vmwareNodePools/{nodepool}
Query parameters
Parameters
etag
string
The current etag of the VmwareNodePool. If an etag is provided and does not match the current etag of the node pool, deletion will be blocked and an ABORTED error will be returned.
allowMissing
boolean
If set to true, and the VMware node pool is not found, the request will succeed but no action will be taken on the server and return a completed LRO.
validateOnly
boolean
If set, only validate the request, but do not actually delete the node pool.
ignoreErrors
boolean
If set to true, the deletion of a VMware node pool resource will succeed even if errors occur during deletion.
This parameter can be used when you want to delete GCP's node pool resource and you've already deleted the on-prem admin cluster that hosted your node pool.
WARNING: Using this parameter when your user cluster still exists may result in a deleted GCP node pool but an existing on-prem node pool.
Request body
The request body must be empty.
Response body
If successful, the response body contains an instance of Operation.
