Removing a connection server from VMware View

Found this helpful KB article. KB 1010153

Works great if you are doing a 4.5 to 4.6 upgrade.

  1. Uninstall the connection server and ADAM instance from the server that you want to remove from the cluster.
    1. Click Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
    2. Remove VMware View Connection Server and Adam Instance VMwareVDMDS.

  2. Refer to Remove View Manager Entry in the Command Line Tool for View Manager document for full details on how to use the vdmadmin.exe tool to remove the reference to the now redundant server in the ADAM database.

    Here is an example of the command:

    "C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\bin\vdmadmin.exe -S -r -s "

    For View 4.5 and later run this command:

    "C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\tools\bin\vdmadmin.exe -S -r -s "
