PolarDB:Delete a released cluster

Last Updated:May 13, 2025

This topic uses a PolarDB for PostgreSQL (Compatible with Oracle) cluster as an example to describe how to delete the backup sets of released clusters.

Usage notes

  • Released clusters in the cluster recycle bin must have at least one backup set. If all backup sets of a cluster are deleted, the cluster cannot be restored.

  • After you release a cluster, the cluster is asynchronously archived to the cluster recycle bin as level-2 backups at a rate of approximately 150 MB/s. For more information about backups, see Backup and restoration.
