How to remove node from kubernetes cluster manually?

Posted April 14, 2020

I have a kubernetes cluster. I started with one node. This node is important to me. I resized this node/droplet from console. Now I resized the pool by adding one more node by incrementing the node count. Now I want to remove this node as I have completed the POC I wanted to do. How do I do this?

Hello,

I think that you can do that by following the steps from the documentation here on how to edit Nodes and Node Pools for an Existing Cluster:

https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/kubernetes/quickstart/#edit-nodes-and-node-pools-for-an-existing-cluster

Hope that this helps.

Best,

Bobby
