Uninstall

Since you may wish to have access to your data after spinning down your cluster, Cortex's bucket, stackdriver logs, and Prometheus volume are not automatically deleted when running cortex cluster-gcp down --config cluster.yaml.

cortex cluster-gcp down --config cluster.yaml

The cortex cluster-gcp down --config cluster.yaml command doesn't wait for the cluster to spin down. You can ensure that the cluster has spun down by checking the GKE console.

Keep Cortex Volumes

The volumes used by Cortex's Prometheus and Grafana instances are deleted by default on a cluster down operation. If you want to keep the metrics and dashboards volumes for any reason, you can pass the --keep-volumes flag to the cortex cluster-gcp down --config cluster.yaml command.
