 # Uninstall UCP
 
-Use the docker/ucp `uninstall-cluster` command to uninstall Docker Universal Control
-Plane from your swarm cluster. This command only removes the UCP services,
-containers and doesn’t affect any other services or containers. Your swarm
-cluster will be left intact.
+Docker UCP is designed to scale as your applications grow in size and usage.
+You can [add and remove nodes](scale-your-cluster.md) from the cluster, to make
+it scale to your needs.
 
-To remove an individual node from UCP, and keep UCP intact, see the
-documentation on joining nodes.
+You can also uninstall Docker Universal Control plane from your cluster. In this
+case the UCP services are stopped and removed, but your Docker Engines will
+continue running in swarm mode. You applications will continue running normally.
 
-## Example
+After you uninstall UCP from the cluster, you'll no longer be able to enforce
+role-based access control to the cluster, or have a centralized way to monitor
+and manage the cluster.
 
-In this example we’ll be running the `uninstall-cluster` command interactively, so that
-the command prompts for the necessary configuration values.
-You can also use flags to pass values to the `uninstall-cluster` command.
+To uninstall UCP, log in into a manager node using ssh, and run:
 
-1. Run the `uninstall-cluster` command.
+```bash
+$ docker run --rm -it \
+  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
+  --name ucp \
+  docker/ucp uninstall-cluster --interactive
+```
 
-    ```bash
-    $ docker run --rm -it \
-      -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
-      --name ucp \
-      docker/ucp `uninstall-cluster` -i
+This runs the uninstall command in interactive mode, so that you are prompted
+for any necessary configuration values.
+[Check the reference documentation](../reference/index.md) to learn the options
+available in the `uninstall-cluster` command.

+## Where to go next
 
-2. List the images remaining on the node.
-
-    ```
-    $ docker images
-
-    REPOSITORY          TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             SIZE

-    ```
-
-    The uninstall command removes all UCP-related images except the
-    `docker/ucp` image.
-
-3. Remove the docker/ucp image.
