Uninstall vFabric License Server from vCenter Server
Uninstalling vFabric License Server removes the Web application from the vCenter Tomcat instance, but it does not remove the
vFabric licensing data from the database; you must perform that step yourself.
Procedure
1. Log on to the Windows computer on which you are running vCenter Server and on which you installed vFabric License
Server.
2. From the Windows Control Panel, start the window from which you add or remove programs. On Windows XP, the window
is called Add or Remove Programs. On Windows Server, the window is called Programs and Features.
3. Select VMware vFabric License Server in the list of programs and uninstall it.
4. If you want to unregister vFabric License Server from vCenter, enter the credentials of the vCenter user who has, at a
minimum, the following vCenter privilege:
• Extension.Unregister
By default, vCenter users with the Administrator role have this privilege, although you might have customized the users
and roles for your particular environment, so check with your vCenter Server administrator. See Authentication and User
Management for information on assigning vCenter privileges.
If you do not want to unregister vFabric License Server, do not enter any credentials.
5. Click Next to finish uninstalling.
What to do next
• If you want to delete the vFabric licensing data from the database, you must do this manually. Consult the vCenter
administrator if you use the internal vCenter database to store license data, or the database administrator of the separate
database.
