The application is no longer in the Protected applications tab once the DR is removed.

6.2. Disabling DR discovered applications
Copy link

  1. In the RHACM console, navigate to All Clusters Data Services Protected applications tab.

Important

Due to a known issue, CephFS PVCs can become orphaned after disabling DR protection for a discovered workload on the cluster where the application in not running. To clean up the orphaned CephFS PVCs, manually delete them using the following command: 

$ oc delete pvc <pvc-name> -n <application-namespace>
Note

The application is no longer in the Protected applications tab once the DR is removed.
