Delete a CronJob

Use this page when a CronJob already exists and you need to remove it fully.

This is the delete task page for an existing CronJob in Sealos.

Keep this page focused on removing the CronJob and verifying that future scheduled runs stopped.

When to use this

Use this page when you are sure the CronJob should no longer stay available in Sealos.

This is the right path when you do not want to keep the current CronJob for later edits or a later resume action.

Typical reasons include removing an outdated schedule, deleting a test CronJob after validation, or cleaning up a task that should never run again.

Before you delete this

Deleting the CronJob stops future scheduled runs.

This action should remove the saved CronJob from the relevant Sealos view.

If you may need the CronJob again later, consider updating it or pausing it instead of deleting it now.

Before you confirm the delete action, make sure you are removing the correct CronJob and that you no longer need its future schedule.

Delete the CronJob

1. Open the existing CronJob from the CronJob list or details page in Sealos.
2. Choose the delete or remove action for that CronJob.
3. Review the CronJob name and visible details so you are deleting the correct item.
4. Confirm the delete action in Sealos.
5. Wait for the list or details view to refresh after the delete completes.

After deletion, the CronJob should no longer remain available for normal lifecycle actions in Sealos.

Verify

Use both checks below before you treat the deletion as complete:

• Confirm the CronJob is gone from the relevant Sealos list or detail view.
• Keep watching through the next expected schedule interval and confirm the next expected scheduled run does not appear afterward.

The deletion is only complete when the CronJob is no longer visible and future scheduled runs stop.
