Deleting stale kubernetes clusters in vCD

Unlike the previous version the CSE 4.x is a stateless appliance and its data is stored in VMware Cloud Director Database.  The cluster creation and deletion compared with CSE 3.x version has improved. Besides, there are some scenarios where the cluster deletion is failing even when the "Force Delete" option is chosen. We can use vCD API explorer to delete it, the following are the API queries you can execute  Under definedEntity POST /1.0.0/entities/{id}/resolve DELETE /1.0.0/entities/{id}

Manage RabbitMQ using VCP LCM

I have been working in vCD for quite some time, and most of the implementation engineers or consultants faced issues during the deployment or upgrade of RabbitMQ for the vCD message queuing service. From vCD 10.2.2, we can use the built-in MQTT client instead of RabbitMQ however, for VCD multisite configuration or some 3rd party applications need RabbitMQ, such as Veeam or VMware HCX. Using the VCP LCM, we can create a new RabbitMQ environment or manage an existing environment. The reason for this blog is that none of the VMware documentation has the information that registering an existing RMQ instance is only going to work if the RMQ instance was previously deployed by the VCP LCM (or at least, if it is a similar setup based on a Bitnami RMQ VM). Other RMQ instances (e.g., running in CentOS) are not supported and cannot be imported into the VCP LCM 1.5. I hope this information will be useful for someone who is performing green field deployment or upgrading an existing setup.
