VMware ESXi requiring reinstall if used in previous ACS install?

Hi

In the documentation it states that you must reinstall ESXi if it was used
in a previous install. Can anyone explain why this is the case or what the
results are if I reuse a host.

If one was to delete the port groups, vm's and images from storage, would
this not suffice?

Regards,
Stíofán

Need not to reinstall ESXi host if it was used in previous install. Deleting the port groups, vm's and images from storage is sufficient.
