VMware vRSLCM 2.0 – Delete an Environment

VMware vRSLCM 2.0 – Delete an Environment: Quite a useful feature especially in a lab environment from where I normally operate!

As you may gather from the versions specified below, this is a VVD 4.3 environment that I am removing from within vRSLCM.

Steps involved:

From the ‘Home’ screen click ‘Manage Environments’.
Click the ellipsis and chose the option to ‘Delete Environment’.
In addition to deleting the environment from vRSLCM select ‘Delete associated VMs from vCenter server’ which performs the task of deleting all virtual machines associated with this environment from vCenter server!
Same holds true for the Windows VMs, provided you select the fist option of course!

Monitor progress from the requests window.

Note: for some not very well explained reason this failed mid-way through deleting all the associated VM’s, after hitting retry the task completed out 100%.
