Decommissioning (Deletion) of Cloud Connection (Azure)

This page explains how to decommission (delete) a Cloud Connection (Azure) using the OCX Portal. Resources created on the cloud side from a Cloud Connection will undergo a deletion process following the decommissioning of the Cloud Connection. Therefore, as a general rule, please perform the decommissioning (deletion) operation through the OCX Portal.

Preparation​

Please confirm the following before decommissioning (deleting) a Cloud Connection (Azure):

  1. Your User Role is either admin or user.
  2. The Cloud Connection to be deleted is not attached to any Virtual Circuit (VC).
  3. Check the Azure portal to ensure no peering settings remain for the target Service Key. If any remain, delete them all.

Procedure for Decommissioning (Deletion) of a Cloud Connection (Azure)​

  1. Log in to the OCX Portal.
  2. Click [Cloud Connections] from the left navigation bar.
  3. Once the Cloud Connections list page appears, click the Delete icon in the Actions column on the right side of the item you wish to decommission (delete).
  4. The [Confirm Deletion] pop-up will be displayed; enter the name of the Primary Cloud Connection and click [Delete].
    • For Azure, the redundant pair associated with the target Cloud Connection will be decommissioned (deleted) at the same time.
    • To cancel the operation, click [Cancel].
  5. Confirm that the corresponding Cloud Connection has been removed from the list.
    • If the deletion is not executed, or if the status remains stuck as deleting or delete failed, please contact us via the Inquiry Desk on the Dashboard.

Notes​

  • A decommissioned (deleted) Cloud Connection cannot be restored.
  • After the Cloud Connection deletion is complete, please delete any resources created during preparation (such as the Azure Service Key) yourself.
  • Due to the nature of the provider's cloud system, the deletion process may take some time (the status may remain as deleting). If the status does not change even after 24 hours have passed since the deletion, please contact OCX Support.
