unable to delete the Apache Spark pool in Azure Synapse Analytics

Question

unable to delete the Apache Spark pool and attached error messages.
I tried to delete via powershell as well from Azure Cloud Shell but no luck.
As you can see in the screenshot there is no notebook1.

Answer 1

@Karthik R Hello and welcome to Microsoft Q&A.

I understand you are having difficulty deleting your spark pool.

The important clue here is the Azure Cloud Shell's error message.

Notebook 1 is referencing your Spark1. If the pool Spark1 was deleted, then the Notebooks attatched to it will break.

Solution: Go to the Notebook 1 and change the Attatched to and then publish. Then try deleting the spark pool.

Answer 2

Hi

Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.

I could see your notebook1 has attached with Spark1. Kindly remove that attachment and publish changes and then try to delete it.

Below is your screenshot.

Hope it helps. If not, kindly share your notebook1 screenshot once to confirm its not attached.

Answer 3

Hello,

i have the same problem.

how it is possible to change the attachment? You are forced to select at least one attachment. In that case you need a an another spark pool.

Answer 4

This is an ongoing issue.
Why can't you delete the Apache Spark Pool if you MUST attach a notebook to another ASP?

This means that I can't save my notebooks in the workspace - I am forced to delete them and then delete the ASP.
