**To delete a cache cluster**

The following ``delete-cache-cluster`` example deletes the specified previously provisioned cluster. The command deletes all associated cache nodes, node endpoints. and the cluster itself. When you receive a successful response from this operation, Amazon ElastiCache immediately begins deleting the cluster; you can't cancel or revert this operation.

This operation is not valid for the following:

* Redis (cluster mode enabled) clusters
* A cluster that is the last read replica of a replication group
* A node group (shard) that has Multi-AZ mode enabled
* A cluster from a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group
* A cluster that is not in the available state ::

    aws elasticache delete-cache-cluster \
        --cache-cluster-id "my-cluster-002"

Output::
