Remove the SQL resource provider

Important

Starting from Azure Stack Hub build 2108, the SQL and MySQL resource providers are offered to subscriptions that have been granted access. If you want to start using this feature, or if you need to upgrade from a previous version, open a support case and our support engineers will guide you through the deployment or upgrade process.

Removing the SQL resource provider will delete:

  • The SQL resource provider.
  • The associated plans and quotas managed by operator.
  • The metadata in Azure Stack Hub for the hosting server, database, and logins.

Removing the SQL resource provider will not delete:

  • The tenant databases on the hosting servers.
  • The packages used to install SQL RP.

To remove the SQL resource provider V1

  1. Verify that you've removed all the existing SQL resource provider dependencies.

    Note

    Uninstalling the SQL resource provider will proceed even if dependent resources are currently using the resource provider.

  2. Get a copy of the SQL resource provider installation package and then run the self-extractor to extract the contents to a temporary directory. You can find the download links for the resource provider installers in Deploy the resource provider prerequisites.

  3. Open a new elevated PowerShell console window and change to the directory where you extracted the SQL resource provider installation files.

Important

We strongly recommend using Clear-AzureRmContext -Scope CurrentUser and Clear-AzureRmContext -Scope Process to clear the cache before running the script.

  1. Run the DeploySqlProvider.ps1 script using the following parameters:

    • Uninstall: Removes the resource provider and all associated resources.
    • PrivilegedEndpoint: The IP address or DNS name of the privileged endpoint.
    • AzureEnvironment: The Azure environment used for deploying Azure Stack Hub. Required only for Microsoft Entra deployments.
    • CloudAdminCredential: The credential for the cloud admin, necessary to access the privileged endpoint.
    • AzCredential: The credential for the Azure Stack Hub service admin account. Use the same credentials that you used for deploying Azure Stack Hub. The script will fail if the account you use with AzCredential requires multi-factor authentication (MFA).
