Cannot remove vCenter vDS 5.5

Hi all

I am trying to remove a switch distributed the vcenter but it comes up with an error message box:

«vDS SW-DCN-C1_C2 port c-40 is used by the entity < not found.» "> Virtual NIC 4000, type: vmVnic.

I remove all the groups from ports and I remove all the hosts and vm that were connected to vds.

I move down, all the vds and c-40 port id to "Unused uplinks" dvUplink in consolidation and failover policies.

What otherwise I can do?

Thanks for the help everybody.

You can remove the entry from vCenter Database its under vpx_entity

Run the script in management studio below if you are using the MSQL.

Select * from VPX_ENTITY by name;

Search for the name of the object that is DVswitch and get the ID of the object and remove it by running the script.

get involved DB admin to run the script.

take a snapshot of the vCenter if VM is a virtual machine and a backup of the DB

If the object is not found even in DB, try to remove it from vCenter MOB.

https://VC.FQDN.com/mob

This will help for sure.

I had the same problem once.

in my case the DvSwitch has been removed, but the uplink remained in vCenter view

When I tried removing it (object cannot be found)

  • Ways correct to remove vCenter

    Hello. Which is OK how to remove vCenter 6.0 and log 6.0 ESXi hosts?

    I'm looking for, but I find the description of 5.1 only. Are there differences between 5.1 and 6.0?

    Please double check it that your ESXi hosts are not with the lock mode. If they are enabled with lockdown, please turn it off.

    Click with the right button on the host computer in the inventory of VC, disconnect it.

    right click again on disconnected host and select Remove host in the inventory.

    Please consider things as if host part of DVSwitch, he will lose access to him since DVSwitch cannot be there with a host when it gets removed from the inventory of the vCenter server.

    When you have finished your vCenter removing all hosts, is currently not used, can be removed.

    Just tested this in my environment, works pretty well.

  • Cannot remove virtualwire, phantom vm still attached to it

    Hello

    someone removed a bunch of demo of our environment which had a few still active nsx virtualwires.

    How can we now remove these virtualwires?

    Manager of the NSX, they seem to be always active, but we cannot remove them as the Manager of the NSX still think it is a virtual machine connected to this virtualwire.

    This virtual machine has already been VC, so we can't unplug the virtualwire .

    How can remove us this machine virtual of this virtualwire so we can remove and clean the database of the NSX.

    Is there a way to sink the two together, as it is now the inconsistency between the Manager of VC and NSX.

    Kind regards

    John

    Hmm, vm ghost don't exist like. Looks like the NSX Manager made a new analysis because ghost VM have now disappeared.

    VCenter server:

    "Plugged - last update successful inventory was Monday, December 15, 2014 20:53:34 GMT"

  • Remove the vDS Teddy

    Hello

    I wonder what will happen to any VM that use a certain bear if a vDS when NIC is removed a vDS or disconnected from the server? How long do it take for vCenter to realize that something has happened and it migrates the virtual machine to an another Teddy?

    I can't find any official information in this respect and I am not able to test it at the moment

    Thanks for any help.

    -Very well and I went to test it. With an active SSH session to a single host with esxtop (network), I removed one (of the 3) NIC of the vDS. Instantly, the virtual machine that were on this NETWORK adapter was moved to another. I had a continuous ping running on those virtual machines before you make the change and not even an ICMP request exceeded (so if the connection dropped out, it's for less than 1 second). The physical switch (a Cisco in this case) also updated its CAM table instantly, although as has been pointed out by Richardson, which may depend on the hardware/network configuration.

    Thanks for all your replies.

    Thank you for help me alots.

    have you tried to go to your manage & Monitor tab and then access your vcenter and see if there are errors in saying vsphield id inaccessible. If there ar enone, you could try reconnecting to vcenter and also specify the credentials for vshield manager. And then you try to do the task.

  • Cannot remove data VMDK file store

    Hello

    I tried to solve a problem where we can't delete the 2 files hard below (since a ls - la in ssh)

    -rw - 1 root root 262144 Jul 31 13:55 2010 - 10 a-000001 - delta.vmdk
    -rw - 1 root root 133711265792 Jul 31 13:55 2010-10A - s001.vmdk

    I tried a rm without success:

    The virtual machine is more listed in VCentre (I tried to delete data store manager), I believe that files can be locked for a reason, but I don't know enough to determine whether it is safe to kill the s pid which seem to use the folder:

    [MS root@ESX1 server demo disk] # lsof | grep 'Disc of demo of MS Server'
    disc of demo server lsof 1317 root cwd DIR 0,18 560/vmfs/volumes/4fb703b6-bb64840f-e817-02215eccbdbb/MS 21592

    No results appear if I lsof files themselves.

    I can kill these processes? I have not the option to restart the server.

    I've also seen mention of restart /sbin/servicesservices. SH , but I'm hesitant because I don't know what this will do - how does affect other virtual machines running?

    I'm running ESX 4.0.0 208167 (according to VCentre) and I watched as a result of discussions among others:

    You can restart the services... There will be no impact to the VMS running... also try to restart VMware vCenter services (services.msc)

    If the above does not work, then restart the host seems to be the fastest and the most secure option.

  • Cannot remove SAN inactive datastore (control enabled storage IO)

    Hello

    I had a few SAN Datastore mounted on Vsphere ESXi 4.1 and we moved all the VMDK to the local data store to recreate a single data store. I forgot to remove Datastore before washing on SAN volumes, so they appear as "inactive". Cannot delete volumes because it shows error below

    call 'HostDataStoreSystem.RemoveDatastore' of object "datastoreSystem-104"on vCenter Server "xxxx" failed."

    Cannot remove datastore "XX_Vol1" because store I / 0 control is enabled on this subject. " Correct it and try the operation again.

    I know the storage i/o control is activated. I looked at the VMware KB which runs e/s storage disabled control to remove the volume. "When I tried to uncheck control IO, I another error 'datastore' isn't accessible.

    So I kind of know how I can disable the storage i/o control in order to remove inactive datastore.

    Would appreciate any help.

  • Cannot remove the ghost folder. Error message: there is no such mailbox

    When I configure Thunderbird to connect to my Alpine Webmail, I had to rearrange my folders. Cannot remove a folder titled "mail" because according to TB "there is no such mailbox" but still shows on the tab my folders. I read through the previous discussions and have tried to unsubscribe the ghost folder, but that did not work or the other. I have a Mac OSX if this affects what it is. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you.

    Hello world. I solved the problem... somehow. By removing the account of Treasury Board and put in place again, TB has been able to sync with the files that were on Alpine. The ghost folder still presented (despite not existing not not on the Alpine site), but by changing the directory to the IMAP server of "mail" to "mailbox" the ghost folder disappeared. I found myself with records who have been named oddly (most likely due to the change of the name of directory) so when I changed the IMAP server directory to "mail" it reset my files with the way they were, with the exception of the ghost folder, that was no longer there. I'm not entirely sure why it worked, but in case someone else has a similar problem, I recommend to give it a try.

    Thank you all for your comments and help.

  • Cannot remove iCloud backup of my old iphone

    I upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a 6 s iPhone yesterday. Activation and downloading my settings and applications from the iCloud went perfectly. I am now trying to delete the backup of the iPhone 4 on the iCloud, so I can have enough space to save my iPhone 6 s. I get a message, "this backup cannot remove because it is in use". Any suggestions?

    Hi Poppabear5,

    Congratulations on your new iPhone 6 s! I understand that you have a problem with deleting your iPhone upward iCloud. Let's see if we can understand what is happening.

    The type of message you see, looks like your iPhone 6s is not made backup upward. The best way to confirm this is to see if it is possible to make a backup with your iPhone 6s and see if Yes see a message in the sense of "this iPhone is currently being restored and will back up automatically when it's done.". If this is the case, then you want to wait for the restore before you delete the backup. Another thing to think about is if you still have your iPhone 4, make sure it is not turned on and backup. It would be considered in service as well.
