  1. Navigate to Servers > Database availability groups.

  2. Select the DAG you want to remove and click Delete Delete icon..

  3. Click Yes to confirm the warning and remove the DAG.

Use the Shell to remove a database availability group

This example removes the DAG DAG1.

Remove-DatabaseAvailabilityGroup -Identity DAG1

How do you know this worked?

To verify that you've successfully removed the DAG, do one of the following:

  • In the EAC, go to Servers > Database Availability Groups, and see if the DAG is still displayed.

  • In the Shell, run the following command to see if the DAG still exists:

    Get-DatabaseAvailabilityGroup <DAGName>
    

    If the DAG was successfully deleted, the preceding command will produce an error message indicating the object could not be found.
