To remove the established trust between a VMware Cloud Director Availability cloud site backed by VMware Cloud Director and a paired cloud or on-premises site, delete the paired site from the cloud site.

Prerequisites

Verify that all configured replications with the paired site are deleted.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management interface of the Cloud Director Replication Management Appliance.

  4. Remove the established trust with an on-premises site from the cloud site.
    • If the on-premises site is still paired, now delete the pairing from the cloud site and then from the on-premises site, unpair the cloud site. For information about unpairing from the on-premises site, see Unpair a remote site.
    • If from the on-premises site the cloud site is already unpaired, delete the remaining record in the cloud site.
    1. Under On-premises sites, click Delete.
    2. In the Delete On-Premises Site window, to remove the on-premises site pairing, click Delete.
