Unable to Disassociate Host from vCenter
We recently were migrated back to our parent companies domain.
they decided to rename the server that vCenter was installed on and now it is a complete mess.
I want to uninstall vCenter and re-install on another server. The current server is also the print server, hence the server name rename.
I found this post answered by Andrew on how to disassociate the Host from vCenter.

However mine only shows this:
If I click on it I get taken to the VMWare downloads page.
Also there is a note at the top that says the logs are stored on non persistent storage (the old servername and domain)
What can i do?
Should i proceed with the uninstall anyway?

Just re-add to the new vCenter Server, and ignore any errors, about being managed by another!

Thanks Andrew,
Almost there. Will reboot tonight and hopefully finish the uninstall tomorrow.
