Decommissioning (Deletion) of Cloud Connection (Oracle Cloud)

This page explains how to decommission (delete) a Cloud Connection (Oracle Cloud) 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.

  • Do not delete the Oracle Virtual Circuit before decommissioning (deleting) the Cloud Connection (Oracle Cloud). Please perform the decommissioning (deletion) of the Cloud Connection (Oracle Cloud) first.
  • Please note that if the Oracle Virtual Circuit is deleted before the Cloud Connection (Oracle Cloud) is decommissioned, the Cloud Connection billing will not terminate until the decommissioning (deletion) of the Cloud Connection is completed on the OCX Portal.

Preparation​

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

  1. Your User Role is either admin or user.
  2. The Cloud Connection to be deleted is not attached to any Virtual Circuit (VC).

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

  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 resource and click [Delete].

    • 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.
  • 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.
  • The OCID used for the deleted Cloud Connection cannot be reused. If you create a new Cloud Connection, a new OCID will be required.
