    To delete a cluster parameter group, use the delete-db-cluster-parameter-group operation with the following parameter.

    • --db-cluster-parameter-group-name — Required. The name of the cluster parameter group to delete. This must be an existing cluster parameter group. You cannot delete the default.docdb4.0 cluster parameter group.

    The following example walks you through the three steps for deleting a cluster parameter group:

    1. Finding the name of the cluster parameter group that you want to delete.

    2. Verifying that the cluster parameter group was deleted.

    1. Find the name of the cluster parameter group that you want to delete.

    The following code lists the names of all cluster parameter groups.

    For Linux, macOS, or Unix:

    For Windows:

    1. aws docdb describe-db-cluster-parameter-groups ^
    2.        --query 'DBClusterParameterGroups[*].[DBClusterParameterGroupName]'

    The output of the preceding operation is a list the names of cluster parameter groups similar to the following (JSON format).

    The following code deletes the cluster parameter group .

    For Linux, macOS, or Unix:

    1. aws docdb delete-db-cluster-parameter-group \
    2.        --db-cluster-parameter-group-name sample-parameter-group-copy

    For Windows:

    There is no output from this operation.

    3. Verify that the specified cluster parameter group was deleted.

    The following code lists the names of all remaining cluster parameter groups.

    For Linux, macOS, or Unix:

    1. aws docdb describe-db-cluster-parameter-groups \
    2.        --query 'DBClusterParameterGroups[*].[DBClusterParameterGroupName]'

    For Windows:

    The output of the preceding operation is a list of cluster parameter groups similar to the following (JSON format). The cluster parameter group that you just deleted should not be in the list.
