Create Steps for Canceling NERC OpenShift Projects

[joachimweyl]

Motivation

We currently do not have a clean way to cancel a user's project.

Completion Criteria

OpenShift Projects can be canceled while retaining the ability to track that the project existed for the ops logs/metrics.

Description

• Test steps
• Confirm steps to retain information for the ops logs/metrics so that even when a project is canceled it is still tracked
• Confirm steps to ensure the user is no longer able to access their project
• Document steps
• Publish steps for users consumption
• Create communication for users
• Review communication
• Reach out to users to explain and point to documentation

Notes

• keep track of what is done to solve this issue as it might be relevant.
• keep track of what is done to solve this issue as it might be relevant.

Completion dates

Notes from Wed NERC meeting
Need to add steps for communication expectations
Do we need to retain data, what would that process look like

Reference: https://nerc-project.github.io/nerc-docs/openshift/applications/deleting-applications/
kubectl delete all --all -n {namespace}

From ColdFront:

Setting an OpenShift allocation to denied/revoked will delete the namespace automatically.
