AUTION
Uninstalling vShield Endpoint places the ESX host in maintenance mode. After uninstallation is
complete, the ESX host reboots. If any of the virtual machines that are running on the target ESX host cannot
be migrated to another ESX host, these virtual machines must be powered off or migrated manually before the
uninstallation can continue. If the vShield Manager is on the same ESX host, the vShield Manager must be
migrated prior to uninstalling vShield Endpoint.
C
AUTION
Migrate your vShield Manager and any other virtual machines to another ESX host to avoid
shutting down these virtual machines during reboot.
