As we already discussed
many times, Job of vSphere
Administrators is not so
limited to GUI. You should be
always available with
troubleshoot your issues
from command line or
CLI.This also applies ,when
you are dealing with VMware
NSX. We have already
discussed about manually
installing NSX VIBS from CLI
of ESXi host. There are some
situation that the installation or Uninstallation of NSX VIB’s may fail due to
some reason and we as vSphere admin should have to troubleshoot and 〄x the
installation/Uninstallation issues. I have faced one of the issue, when i try to
uninstall the NSX components from vSphere Web Client. Let’s take a detailed
look at step by step procedure to manually remove NSX VIBs on the ESXi host.

You can UnPrepare the Host/Cluster from vSphere Web Client -> Network &
Security -> Installation ->Host Preparation -> Click on UnInstall to
unprepare/ Uninstall the NSX VIBs from ESXi host.

Sometimes, The Uninstall step may get failed due to some communication
issues. We should also be ready to manually remove the NSX VIBs installed on
the ESXi host from Command Line. There are 3 VIBs related to NSX which we
need to remove from the ESXi host.

1. esx-vxlan
2. esx-vsip
3. esx-dv〄lter-switch-security

One VIB enables the layer 2 VXLAN functionality, another VIB enables the
distributed router, and the 〄nal VIB enables the distributed 〄rewall.

Manually Remove NSX VIBs from ESXi Host:
