  1. Expand the menu of the tab with your username.

  2. Click Download kubeconfig to download kubeconfig of your management cluster.

  3. Log in to any local machine with kubectl installed.

  4. Copy the downloaded kubeconfig to this machine.

  5. Run the following command:

    kubectl --kubeconfig <mgmtClusterKubeconfigPath> edit -n <projectName> cluster <managedClusterName>

  6. Edit the opened kubeconfig by removing the following lines:

    finalizers:
- cluster.cluster.k8s.io

  7. Manually clean up the resources of the nodes that you have previously deleted not using the Container Cloud web UI.
