vSAN 6.1 - how to remove a non-existent group (all disks in HBA mode)?

Hello everybody!

I experimented with vSAN 6.1, then removed the test cluster with esxi-hosts (the absolutely correct way, with the elimination of hosts vSphere).

After that, I completely reinstalled hypervisor esxi on the hosts, created a new cluster and introduced it hosts.

However, Disk Managment in vSAN appeared old disk group from a deleted cluster marked "Absent". How can this be?

Now I can not remove this non-existent disk group.

In the WEB-client is issued a message: "A general system error occurred: Disk is not mounted on this host".

For the command line "esxcli vsan storage remove -s" the message: "Unable to remove device: Disk mapping is not mounted on this host"

Help please - how to delete group?

I fixed my problem:

1. Made every problem disk in RAID0, reboot

2. Return every disk in JBOD, reboot

3. All work! And no wrong disk groups!
