Cause
Resolution

This is not supported procedure.

1, vCenter 6.5 is supported for some VxRail versions

2, if customer want to join VxRail to external vcenter, it should be done at the initial installation step. NOT deploy with internal vcenter and delete it after initial configuration.

Now the only approach to get back to the supported configuration is to reset the appliance and re-run the initial configuration.
