Prerequisites
If you want to uninstall the vCenter Chargeback instance that was initially installed and is part of a cluster,
you must first uninstall all the other vCenter Chargeback instances in the cluster before this instance is
uninstalled. That is, the vCenter Chargeback instance that includes the load balancer must not be uninstalled
before other instances from the cluster are uninstalled.
Procedure
1 Start the uninstaller from the Start > Programs > VMware > VMware vCenter Chargeback >
Uninstall VMware vCenter Chargeback menu.
Do not remove the application using Add/Remove Programs. The application is not removed cleanly and
you might have to manually delete some files that were not deleted during the uninstall process.
2 Select the required options and click Uninstall.
3 Click OK to confirm the uninstallation.
4 Click Done.
What to do next
If you uninstall an instance that is part of a cluster, ensure that you manually remove the entries corresponding
to the instance from the worker.properties file located at Installation_Directory \Apache2.2\conf\.
For example, if the instance name is chargeTest, you must remove the following section from the
worker.properties file:
# Set properties for chargeTest (ajp99)
worker.chargeTest.type=ajp99
worker.chargeTest.host=90.0.1.1
worker.chargeTest.port=8009
worker.chargeTest.lbfactor=1
The entry (ajp99), in this case, is the AJP port of the load balancer.
You must also remove the instance name from the list of instances included in the
worker.balancer.balance_workers parameter under the Define the LB worker section. For the example
suggested in the previous step, the entry might be as follows:
# Define the LB worker
worker.balancer.type=lb
worker.balancer.sticky_session = 1
worker.balancer.method=R
worker.balancer.balance_workers=worker1,worker2,
chargeTest ,sample0
Delete the chargeTest entry from the list of instances.
