Some hosts in our environment were abruptly removed before the VEM could be uninstalled from the host. This has left us with some VEMs in the VSM reported as absent. How can I remove them? Modules 3-6

Russell,
Try this...
n1000v-MV# config t
n1000v-MV(config)# no vem 3
That should remove it.

command I get:
* this terminal session
switch(config-vem-slot)# sh mod vem mapping

cannot modify slot 5: host module is inserted
I can't delete vem 5. Please help.

The error says it's still inserted. Can you run "show module" and make sure Module 5 does not show up? If it stil shows up then the you will have to first disconnect that ESX host from the N1KV from within vCenter.

Thanks for input. Long story, but the reason the VEM was still showing up is because the host was still on line. My bad. It should have been deleted as was not.
