Removing an ESXi image profile

Starting with the vSphere Image Builder 5.1, there is a cmdlet Remove-EsxImageProfile to remove an image profile. The command and its syntax remain the same with vSphere Image Builder 5.5 as well.

How to do it...

The following procedure will guide you through the steps required to remove/delete image profiles:

  1. Issue the command Get-EsxImageProfile to list all the available image profiles.
