Uninstalling Catalogic DPX Plug-in for VMware vSphere

Uninstalling Catalogic DPX Plug-in for VMware vSphere

You can uninstall Catalogic DPX Plug-in for VMware vSphere Client from the HTML5-based DPX Management Interface of the Catalogic DPX Master Server that you installed the plug-in.

Follow this procedure to remove the Plug-in for VMware vSphere Client from the Master Server Management Interface and the vCenter.

1. In the HTML5-based DPX Management Interface, open Nodes in the navigation panel.

2. The Plug-in for vSphere can only be removed from VMware vCenter/ESXi nodes to which the vSphere Plug-in has been deployed. Select the VMware vCenter node to which the plugin is to be removed and click on the Open button. The Node information window will open to the Settings tab.

3. Click on the VMware vSphere Plug-in tab.

4. Enter the username and password for the Master Server in the Username and Password fields.

5. Review the DPX Plug-in information, including the DPX Plug-in Version, Current State, Current Activity, Last Activity, and Last Activity Result. Prior to uninstalling, verify that the Current State is set to Installed. Click on the Uninstall button.

6. Log in to the vCenter to verify that the plugin has been uninstalled. Select Menu and click Administration. Select Client Plug-ins. The Catalogic Plug-in should no longer be listed.

Note. When uninstalling, it is recommended that if you are logged into the vSphere Client, log out and re-login. It may take several minutes for the Plug-in for VMware vSphere to install, update, or be uninstalled in the vCenter UI. When the Plug-in for vSphere is uninstalled, it will no longer appear in the Master Server Management Interface. In some cases, the plugin may still be displayed in the vCenter user interface and may require a reboot of the vCenter before it disappears. If you cannot easily reboot the vCenter in your environment, contact VMware support in order to access the Managed Object Browser (MOB), purge the plugin, and restart the associated vCenter processes so that it disappears from the vCenter user interface.

The Catalogic DPX Plug-in for the VMware vSphere will be uninstalled from the VMware vCenter to which it was deployed.
