Undeploy a virtual appliance

Before you begin:

1. If the virtual appliance is not synchronized with the hypervisor or cloud provider, first:
   • remove the undeployed VMs OR 
   • individually undeploy the deployed VMs OR
   • deploy all VMs

To undeploy a virtual appliance, which will destroy all VMs and hard disks on the hypervisor datastore:

1. Go to Virtual datacenters → select Virtual appliance
2. Click the Undeploy button on the right-hand side of the screen. 

If you redeploy the virtual appliance, the platform will make a fresh copy of the template disks.
