I am upgrading from 2012 to 2016 in SCVMM. I had to manually remove a VM host using a script. After I did this I am getting a refresh performance data error 401 Virtual Machine host (guid) is not associated with the VMM Management server. I reimaged the server and added it back in now I have failures optimizing the cluster.

    Hi,

    Are you able to detect the object through powershell?

    get-scvmhost -name "hostname" | remove-scvmhost -force

    This one should force the removal of your host.
