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