How to delete backup regions?

I’ve add SEA as a backup region, but I am very confused on how I remove it. After doing some more reading I’ve found that backup regions are deprecated and should not be used anyway.

I’m not 100% sure but I believe you might be able to remove them by the calling fly regions backup with the current non-backup regions, so for instance if you have something deployed in fra and cdg, you would run flyctl regions backup fra cdg which would remove the other regions you used as backup.

Yes that worked!

This is the command I ran:

flyctl regions backup iad

you can also pass an invalid region to clean it:
flyctl regions backup nil

Will clean your backup regions, tho I’m not sure if it is by design…
