I had a vCenter 5.5 box crash and burn. There were no backups of the database, and for all intents and purposes, that vCenter's data is gone. I have built a new vCenter, and re-added the hosts. I have everything back up and running with exception of managing the existing distributed virtual switch. I've moved all of the VM's over to standard virtual switches, but can't remove the vmkernel adapters of each host from the dVs, over to a standard switch. Is it possible to get the old dVs over to a manageable state, or am I out of luck here? (move vm's to other host, rebuild host)
