aws-target-group-cleanup

Remove ALB target groups that are not assigned to load balancers

Purpose

Clean up target groups that no longer have a load balancer assigned

Prerequisites

• pip install boto3
• Either an AWS role (if running on EC2) or an access key/secret key

Usage

Dry run mode:

python aws-target-group-cleanup.py -r us-west-2 -p myprefix

Removal mode:

python aws-target-group-cleanup.py -r us-west-2 -p myprefix -f

Where:

• -r is the region
• -p is an optional prefix (ie. only remove target groups starting with this)
• -f will turn on the removal (run in dryrun mode without this flag)
