Stop Workspaces
⚠️ Self-hosted as a product is no longer supported
The last official update of this product is the November 2022 self-hosted release. We no longer sell commercial self-hosted licenses. If you want to self-host Gitpod, you can still request our free community license. However, we no longer offer support or updates for it. If you are interested in an isolated, private installation of Gitpod, take a look at Gitpod Dedicated. Read our blog on Gitpod Dedicated to learn why we made the decision to discontinue self-hosted.
Sometimes it becomes necessary to stop Gitpod workspaces (in a <namespace>). Usually this needs to be done when updating Gitpod. Please see the update guide for more information.
This can be done with kubectl, and when done so, the IDE is closed, data in /workspace is backed up, and then the pod finally terminates.
A Single Workspace
language: $ kubectl delete pods <workspace-or-headless-pod-name> -n <namespace>All Workspaces
Caution: This will delete all actively running workspaces.
Can be done prior to outage windows, or for troubleshooting.
language: $ kubectl delete pods -l component=workspace -n <namespace>
