When I try to delete the Cloud Object Storage service in my Cloud Pak for Data as a Service account, I get this message:
An unexpected error occurred while attempting to delete service instance: Unexpected response code: 500 (Instance is in pending_reclamation state. Use API to reclaim the instance.)
What does this error mean? What should I do to really delete this service?
According to https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/hyper-protect-dbaas-for-mongodb?topic=hyper-protect-dbaas-for-mongodb-what-new#dec-2020:
When you delete a service instance, it's disabled (pending reclamation) rather than deleted completely. You can restore a deleted service instance with no data loss within the retention period of seven days. You can also choose to permanently delete it. See Deleting service instances.
This seems to be true for all IBM Cloud services, not just MongoDB. Using the command line interface, I was able to actually delete the Cloud Object Storage service I had.
