hi all.
I would like to know if cp_temp and CP_replica can be deleted from vcenter, I have remove/delete all Pools and Iwould like to start from the ground up ?
Thanks
cp_replica and and cp_template are required for pool maintenance operations, so don't delete them as long and you are using the VMs. Once you delete all the pools, cp_ VMs will also be cleaned up. If they don't, there is way to clean them up manually.
This is the procedure I use to remove cp-replica and cp-template.
I am Japanese, so the translation is messy and translation is messy to translate into English. Forgive me.
=====
It is not possible to delete cp-template and cp-parent manually from vCenter, even for instant clones.
Therefore, use iccleanup.cmd from the Connection Server to remove them.
If you use cmd, it may not work properly (Horizon 7.13.1).
Therefore, executing it with powershell may work.
1. start cmd with administrator privileges.
2. move to C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\tools\bin
Execute the following command
iccleanup.cmd -vc vCenter FQDN -uid administrator@vsphere.local -skipCertVeri
If iccleanup is successfully started, execute the following command
list
5. If there are any unneeded cp-templates or cp-parents left, the following will appear.

6. if cp-template or cp-parent you want to delete appears, enter the following command
delete -index 1
| Note that the number is different for each virtual machine to which cp-replica , cp-template is connected. |
After executing delete -index 1, cp-template and cp-parent have already been deleted.
Subsequent operations are not necessary.
=====
I hope it works out for you.
