Why don't you just delete them manually? After all, you only have to do it once. If not, why automate this task? More information is needed.

Post ESXi upgrade to 6.7, all VM's fail to power on - "Transport (VMDB) error -45: Failed to connect to peer process".
Just upgraded the host from 6.0u3 to 6.7u2. I was willing to either upgrade the VCSA or make a new one; this was part of a recovery process where I had mistakenly reset the inventory for the VCSA 6.0 and could not get it to update from the vCenter Server.
Having upgraded the host, a new VCSA creation failed, the upgrade of the old one won't work because it won't start. All VM's on the host have the same peer process problem. I tried looking for a lock file but did not find one; I tried looking at the logs for the VM, but didn't see any errors. What should I be fixing here?
Log file for VCSA attached.

Re: Network connectivity issue between VRA and IaaS host
DNS is what I am guessing too.
VA and IaaS components should have the exact:
1. primary/secondary dns server
2. search domains -- order is critical too -- I've experienced connectivity issues when search domain order on the IaaS components is different than the vRA VA configuration. The first search domain must be the same on all components.

VM Migration Between two cluster
Hi Guys
I am in the process of migrating VM from clusterA to ClusterB , Both cluster can see the same datastore , so what I have been doing so far with no problem is:
1) Power off the VM in clusterA
2) remove from inventory in clusterA
3) register VM in clusterB
4) Power ON VM (making sure Vlan is the same)
Here is my question, this has worked with no problem with VM with one Hard drive, what should be the process if the VM has TWO (2)drives, will the register vmx in clusterB bring the two Hard drives over ?
Thanks

HA host failure/isolation
имеется растянутый HA кластер на 6 версии (2 территориально удалённые серверные) на 2 группах серверов, vplex-metro, 2 СХД в зеркале.
созданы 2 группы DRS для VM по группам серверов и правила для групп VM сопоставляющие их с группами host. DRS - fully automated.
HA - host monitoring, host failure = restart VMs. Остальные фичи в disable (response for host isolation = disable). Datastore for hearbeating = use specified (выбран 1 из 6).
На той неделе, при работах, админы потеряли управление коммутатором сети на 2 серверной (в него подключены LAN серверов) его перезагрузили.
При этом SAN коммутаторы и vplex-metro как и СХД были в сетевой связности (перезагруженный коммутатор был только на LAN серверов).
все host в vCenter стали недоступны, VM что были на них стали в статусе (disconnected), HA ни одну не перезапустил на хостах основной серверной, коммутатор минут через 10 ожил и VM стали доступны по LAN.
что не так и как переделать чтобы работало ...как я это представлял %)

Re: VM Migration Between two cluster
First, if both Cluster managed by the same vCenter Instance than you dont need to unregister the VM. If EVC mode is the same for both Clusters than vMotion or Cold Migration can be used.
But i assumed that different vCenters are involved right?
- A VM unregister and register doesnt move anything around. It doesnt make a difference if the VM has one or more vDisks.
- But.. if you spread VM vDisks over multible Datastore you have to ensure that the new Cluster(ESX Host) see all of them and also use the same GUID for it because the vDisk are referenced with an absolute file path (only true for the vDisks outside the VM Homedirectory) within the *.vmx
About the network. If you use a vSS than the Portgroup is identify about their name. So ensure that the PG Name is the same. If you use a vDS than you have to reconfigure the VM Network and select the right/new vDS again because the PG IDs doesnt match anymore.

Re: Dell custom image 6.7U2 or VMWare standard image 6.7U3
As a note. The Dell custom ISO images are now listet/linked from the VMware Download page like all the others(HPE, Lenowo...) as well.
Otherwise its available without anykind of registration from dell.com

Re: esxi cannot boot after updating to 6.7 u3! how to fix it?
Hi TimMann,
thank you for providing us the workarounds. But what about those people who have tried to update ESXi 6.7 unsuccessfully? When the installation is marked as invalid no one of these workarounds can be applied, right? How can we delete the mark to try to boot ESXi 6.7 U3 with the firmware boot mode of legacy BIOS?
And will this issue be fixed with a new update ZIP file so that we can install it and boot with UEFI mode?
Kind Regards.

Re: Unable to increase datastore size over 16 TB
Thank you for your answer Alessandro, but the problem that I figured out is different : my LUN is correctly reported as 20 Tb but, when trying to increase the Datastore up to 20 Tb, no volume is presented to me by the wizard.
In the same way, trying to increase it from CLI (with parted) is impossible because VMware reports only 16 Tb.
No problem with VM VMDK allocation.

You can use Powershell and connect to your vCenter

Re: After reboot a host is not responsive for 20 minutes in vCenter
In which case it is still unsupported as per my previous reply. You must upgrade vCenter before the hosts if moving to U3, regardless of whether you use the HPe or the VMware image.

Re: After reboot a host is not responsive for 20 minutes in vCenter
VMWare support gave also this solution. We will update the vCenter. Thanks for your answer!

Re: Is there a script available to determine LUN / datastore GPT corruption?
hello again,
I found something wrong with this script which I want to bring to your notice and help me please....
If any host root password is wrong or unable to connect to that host, it is giving same result (I mean, the previous stored value in the string) to those hosts which has issue to connect with pwd or some other connectivity issue. could you please correct this?
if any host unable to connect or contact, it should give a result as unable to contact or what ever error it throws and that should be captured by the script and show against each host in the output file.
and also, can you please insert a line to ask for the user id and pwd (either root or active directory authentication) instead we input manually the user id and pwd in the script...
TIA

Re: macOS Catalina issue [beta]
stumostumo, I loved this idea, immediately created a new admin user in Catalina System Preferences -> Users and Accounts. Then clicked on my username in the upper right of the Mac Menu Bar (actually, username is the 3rd or 4th from the right item in the menu bar, depending on whether Siri is enabled), but anyway, logged in as the new user and boom badda bing, VMWare 11 already installed, included in the new account because it had been added in the first account created with the installation.
Still not received a popup for clicking onto the Screen Recording List.
Got the checkmarks for Input Monitoring and Full Disk Access, but still parched without a checkbox for VMWare Fusion.app on the screen recording area of Securty and Privacy.
This is Trump's fault.
