You cannot remove a host from vCenter if the host is using vDS, you will need first move the host to use vSS and then remove the host. The following VMware KB article sumarize how to move a ESXi to a different vCenter when using vDS: 1029498Moving an ESX/ESXi host with vDS from one vCenter Server to another (1029498) | VMware KB
