Resolution

The following steps cleans up the state of the stream. Note that you will need admin role.

1. Connect to the backend skipper database

2. From the mysql CLI - select the stream(s) that failed to install or delete

mysql> select machine_id, state from state_machine where machine_id in (<'STREAM_NAME_1'>, <'STREAM_NAME_2'>);

3. Confirm the list of stream to delete.  Then proceed with the deletion.

Delete the state_machine records then commit deletion

mysql> delete from state_machine where machine_id in (<'STREAM_NAME_1'>, <'STREAM_NAME_2'>);

mysql> commit;

4. Using cf CLI, target the backend org/space. Then restage skipper application. Note: Backend application are located in the p-dataflow org.

$ cf restage skipper

 

5. Wait for the skipper application to start successfully. Then test by deploying or destroying the stream. If the problem persists, please open a Broadcom Support request.
