Computer stuck in 'Powering On' after deletion
Hi guys,
I was testing something and deleted the wrong VM from SCVMM... Now in vWorkspace the VM is seen in changing state and I cannot delete it... i.e. it's been deleted from SCVMM/Hyper-V but still lives on in vWorkspace. I cannot delete the Computer group as it's not empty and I can't delete the computer as it doesn't exist!
I want to delete the whole group, which isn't live so I don't mind losing it... However I cannot zap the whole of vWorkspace
Any ideas?

Hehe, it may be time for us to promote that 'back door' item to a regular feature. There are certainly some valid cases for needing to forcibly remove a VM from the vWorkspace database. Btw, our Remove-QVWComputer PowerShell cmdlet has a -ForceKill parameter. http://wiki.vworkspace.inside.quest.com/index.php/Remove-QVWComputer

Right click the desktop and select 'delete', once the dialogue box is open before you click OK hold down CTRL and SHIFT, once you click OK you'll get a 'kill' dialogue box. This should do it.
