Parameters

-detachpartition
(Optional) Specifies that the vCenter detached from the partition and deleted, while retaining the partition. By default, the partition that contains the vCenter is removed when you remove the vCenter.
vcenter_id | vcenter_name
(Required) Specifies the vCenter ID or name to remove a vCenter from the system.
Note: Before you remove the vCenter, complete the following steps, unless you are using the -detachpartition option:
  • Remove all volumes from the default volume group from the vCenter partition.
  • Remove all non-default volume groups from the vCenter partition.
  • Remove all hosts associated with the vCenter partition.

If you remove a vCenter by using the -detachpartition option, only the vCenter only. The storage partition and any resources in the partition are unaffected.
