Delete a resource group

You can delete resource groups in Abiquo and the cloud provider, or in Abiquo only.

When you delete a resource group in Abiquo and the cloud provider:

for OCI, to delete a resource group, it must be empty.
for Azure, you can delete a resource group that contains resources, and Azure will delete all the resources.

In Azure, when you delete a resource group, you will delete ALL its resources in Azure, and Azure will not consider business rules. For example, it will not check if the user only has limited access to VDCs in the platform. So to delete a resource group, you must have the Delete resource groups privilege.

When you delete a resource group in Abiquo only:

for OCI, the resource group must be empty in Abiquo.
for Azure, the resource group must be empty. So you must first remove all of its resources from Abiquo only, or in Azure too. This means that you must have access to all of the resources.

Privileges: Manage resource groups, Delete resource groups

To delete a resource group:

Please note that it may take a long time to delete the resource group in the cloud provider.
