AUTOMATE+ Rollback
Follow these steps to remove AUTOMATE+ from your AWS Account
To remove AUTOMATE+ from your AWS account, please follow the steps below.
Log into the AWS Account that you wish to remove AUTOMATE+ from
In a separate tab of the same browser log into AUTOMATE+ via http://app.6pillars.ai
In the AUTOMATE+ Dashboard, navigate to Settings → Accounts
Identify the AWS Account you wish to remove from AWS and click Rollback. A new browser tab will open with a pre-filled CloudFormation template. (Please ensure that new tabs & popups, at least from http://app.6pillars.ai are allowed, if not you will have to repeat the process after allowing popups)
Acknowledge the IAM checkbox and click Create Stack, this will work similar to the deployment, however with the 6pillars cleaner, and in reverse.
It should take between 3-5 minutes for the cleaner stack to deploy successfully. Once deployed, the cleaner stack will commence the removal of six-pillars, AUTOMATE+ stacks.
Note: Due to the architecture of AWS CloudFormation, we sometimes see on occasion that the deletion process can fail at first. This is no cause for concern, the cleaner will continue to run and re-attempt removal. All six-pillars stacks should be removed within 10-15 minutes.
NB: PLEASE DELETE THE CLEANER STACK ONCE COMPLETED. After the AWS native services associated with AUTOMATE+ have been removed from the connected account & once all six-pillars stacks are removed, you can select the Cleaner stack in "Stacks" and click delete. The cleaner stack will then be deleted.
After AUTOMATE+ has been removed from the relevant AWS account, you can remove the account connection from your AUTOMATE+ "deployed accounts" screen, by clicking “DELETE ACCOUNT” and selecting "YES" to remove.
Should you have any issues with the rollback process, feel free to reach out to support@6pillars.ai, in addition there is a backup rollback process outlined on this page, however this should only be used as a backup.
