Conformance Pack is deleted but Config rules are not deleted

1

I used a conformance pack, to have a few config rules in AWS Config service. I could not delete the config rules, as they were created by the conformance pack. Although, I tried deleting the conformance pack, and it has been deleted, but the config rules are still there. And I am in no shape of handling those config rules, because conformance pack does not exist anymore. How can we get those deleted?

Hello,

You may want to open a support case to look into this. I tried replicating your scenario by deploying Operational best practices for S3 which auto deployed 14 rules and each rule had a suffix of "-conformance-pack-<SOME RANDOM Chars like ftxyhxdbz>".

If I go into rules section, I could find new 14 rules associated with S3 conformance pack which I deployed. All these rules have Type = 'AWS managed' and Enabled evaluation mode = 'DETECTIVE'.

When I delete S3 best practices conformance pack, it has also deleted 14 rules associated with this pack.

If you have some more information or if I am missing any step than let me know. If not, I will recommend to open a support case to look further in this.

    Yes, I tried to reproduce the issue, but did not succeed. I used same conformance pack, but on deletion, it cleaned up all the relevant config rules. Although, I believe I should go with the support case.
