terminateInstances

terminateInstances method allows you to terminate only the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management services whose servers are mapped to AWS VMs.

Note

terminateInstances method of CLM AWS SDK allows you to terminate the services and not the individual servers. If you have used a server ID for terminating an instance, then it checks the corresponding service and if it contains only single server object then it terminates that service, if not a CloudException is thrown stating "Service Offering Instance contains more than one Compute Container. Hence, we can't decommission the individual Compute Container as requested."

This operation can be performed by specifying either of following:

Service ID(s) from BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management.
Service name(s) from BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management.
Server instance ID(s) from BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management.

The following table depicts how terminateInstances method is used:

Before you begin

Prior to using this CLM AWS SDK method, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

You have supplied the configuration parameters to the CLMEC2Client constructor or have specified in the configuration file. See CLM AWS SDK syntax and usage for details.
Supply either of the three:
- List of valid server ids from BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management. You can obtain the server ids using the getInstanceId() method of com.bmc.cloud.sdk.aws.model.ServerInstance
- List of valid service ids from BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management. You can obtain the service ids using the getServiceId() method of com.bmc.cloud.sdk.aws.model.ServerInstance
- List of valid service names from BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management. You can obtain the service names using the getServiceName() method of com.bmc.cloud.sdk.aws.model.ServerInstance
