Examples
Example 1: Delete a PBD piped from the getter
PS> Get-XenPBD -Uuid 1871ac51-ce6b-efc3-7fd0-28bc65aa39ff | Remove-XenPBD
Deletes a PBD. The object is piped in, which is the usual way once you already have it.
Example 2: Delete a PBD by uuid
PS> Remove-XenPBD -Uuid 1871ac51-ce6b-efc3-7fd0-28bc65aa39ff
Deletes a PBD. -Uuid is the way to be sure of exactly one object.
Example 3: See what would be deleted
PS> Get-XenPBD -Uuid 1871ac51-ce6b-efc3-7fd0-28bc65aa39ff | Remove-XenPBD -WhatIf
Reports the PBD that would be deleted without deleting anything. Every cmdlet that changes the server takes -WhatIf and -Confirm.
