Uninstall the platform

Uninstall a deployment of the Ansys App Portal and Light Deployment Templates™ platform.

Note

The first steps are performed in PowerShell and the rest are performed in WSL.

1. Open a Windows PowerShell terminal as administrator and stop the platform.

   • PowerShell

   .\Stop-Platform.ps1
   

2. Remove the deployed applications.

   Replace C:\Path\To\Directory with the path to the directory where the applications are stored (by default, C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Ansys\solutions).

   • PowerShell

   Remove-Item -Path "C:\Path\To\Directory" -Recurse -Force
   

3. Switch to WSL.

   • PowerShell

   wsl
   

4. Remove all existing containers.

   • WSL

   docker rm -f $(docker ps -a -q)
   

5. Remove all existing images.

   • WSL

   docker rmi -f $(docker images -q)
   

6. Remove all existing networks.

   • WSL

   docker network rm $(docker network ls -q | grep -vE '^(bridge|host|none)$')
   

7. Remove all cache files.

   • WSL

   docker system prune -a
   

8. [Optional] Remove all existing volumes.

   Warning

   This removes the data generated by the platform and the applications. If you have any doubt about this step, do not do it.

   • WSL

   docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)
   docker volume prune -a
