How to remove roles?

Post by TitaniumCoder477 »

Use case: Migration of Veeam config from a Hyper-V server to a VMware virtual server
Backstory: The Hyper-V server went down hard and is not coming up any time soon. It was only functioning as a Veeam backup server which local virtualization capability. To get the backups operationally as quickly as possible, I stood up a VM on the VMware host and restored the Veeam config.
Problem: Veeam thinks the VMware VM is still a Hyper-V server, so it's trying to update the Hyper-V Integration component which is no longer relevant. Can't seem to get around it. Of course, when I try to upgrade anyway it fails because the VM isn't a Hyper-V server.

Hi James, you can ask support to clean up the database so it stops thinking it's a Hyper-V host.
