How to remove Powerpath from ESXi 5.5

Since we have faced, host disconnection issue due to power path older version, we decided to remove power path from all the ESXi Hosts.

How to remove it.
1) list the vib and make sure powerpath installed on the ESXi


 try to remove vib one by one as below but got error message


So how do we remove?

remove all in one command as below and reboot ESXi

esxcli software vib remove --vibname=powerpath.plugin.esx --vibname=powerpath.cim.esx --vibname=powerpath.lib.esx

 
 now it was successful and changed to PSP RR. if you want to get good performence change the IOPS from 1000 to 1 on roundrobin PSP and attch to storage.
