Removing a storage system or management server

When you remove a storage system or management server from the list of storage systems managed
by the Storage Module for vCenter, the Storage Module for vCenter stops collecting and displaying
data for that storage system or management server. Disks from the removed storage system are
displayed as unmanaged disks in the vSphere Client.

Consider the following:

Removing an HP EVA does not remove the associated management servers.

Removing an HP EVA Command View management server does not remove the associated
arrays.

Removing an HP StoreVirtual management group removes all of the storage nodes in the
group.

To remove a storage system or management server:
