Remove VMware ESXi virtual machine

Thread solved

Hello.

I added VMware ESXi virtual machine to Acronis 12.5.
But I don't need them anymore.
So I want to remove the added VMware ESXi virtual machines from the Acronis list.

But I am not sure how to remove the VMware list.

How can I clear this?

Thank you.

Hello Lemoning,

thank you for posting this question on Acronis forums!

Please go to Settings tab -> Agents, sort them by Type, select Agents that you do not need to protect anymore -> click on Delete at the right pane.

Hello Maria.

Thanks for the answer.

There is no such list in the menu you gave me.
Based on the menu list on the left, only the items in the equipment with the agent are displayed.
The list in the VMware item is not displayed.

is there any other way?

Hello Lemoning.

I recommended that you delete unnecessary Agents from the lowest Settings tab:

However, it could be more convenient for you deleting Agents from the Device tab but please select Machines with agents section:

Hello Maria

Thank you for the kind explanation.

However, the VM device list does not appear in Setting -> Agent.
And in Divices -> Machines with agents, the VM device that installed Acronis directly on the virtual device has a Delete button,
Devices added using the VMware ESXI Add button do not have a Delete button.

Hello Lemoning.

Devices added using the VMware ESXI Add button do not have a Delete button.

These devices could not be deleted via Acronis interface: Acronis gets the list of VMs from the VMware ESXi host where Acronis Agent for VMware (Virtual Appliance) is installed. Only can only delete Agents from devices with Acronis Agents installed. VMs on the VMware ESXi host do not have Acronis Agent installed on them, that is why you can't delete them.

Please use VMware ESXi tools for deleting unnecessary VMs.
