Hello, @ahmadamirahmadi007

As described in more details in #11544 (review), the service offerings were originally designed to only be deactivated, and not removed. Thus, Apache CloudStack does not currently support deleting them.

As possible workarounds, it is possible to manually update it from the DB, defining its removed field to a timestamp, or to delete the offering's record. However, it is crucial to be ensured that no computing resources are currently using the offering and, if it is completely deleted, that no other resources reference it.

But this was possible in version 4.17. Am I right?

@bernardodemarco But this was possible in version 4.17. Am I right?

as I remember, even in older version, the service offering is not removed, but set to Inactive instead. @ahmadamirahmadi007
