Deleting an SDDC

Delete (terminate) an SDDC in VMware Solution.

Deleting an SDDC removes the SDDC's associated instances and boot volumes. With a failed SDDC, you can also delete all its associated networking resources. These resources include the subnet and its route table and security list, and the VLANs and their route tables and NSGs. A networking resource can't be deleted if that resource is used by another SDDC or networking resource. A networking resource in use remains after the SDDC is deleted.
