Once you login look for the extension and remove it.
Once you do this you have to log out of your browser and log back in for the extension to be completely gone. (do not refresh as you will still see it.)
This only happens if you do not remove the plugin from the management console prior to changing/deleting the vm.
I tried that but didn't work. I've removed the management server and deployed a new one with a different IP. Unfortunately, I didn't unregister through the appliance before deleting the old management server. Even though I've registered the new management server, it still fails but is trying to connect to the OLD management server IP.
I tried manually removing the plugin, re-registering and the value of the old management server will not go away.
This is what I did when I mentioned I manually removed the plugin, it didn't work and still referenced the old system. Here's what ended up fixing it for me:
1. Unregistered vcenter using the appliance
2. Logged into vCenter and deleted everything with the name Isilon (some of these I needed to use rm -rf)
Interesting, I have always been successful when using the MOB interface to remove the plugin.
Now I have ran into browser issues where I thought it was uninstalled but it still showed up in the web interface.
Restarting the browser usually cleans things up.
You may also need to connect via the browser to port 5480 and restart the vSphere Web Admin, and then once again restart your browser.
Clearly unregistering the management console from the vSphere server is ideal but I have forgot to-do that a couple of times when testing and had to work through these steps.
I have not had to manually delete these items at the command line yet.
I have the same issue, but trying clear the cache browser, unregister vcenter from management console, register again, delete pluggin dont work for me. Any other idea?

Please try opening the management server in a separate tab and keep it opened. Example:
If you are using Chrome:
Tab1: Open the vCenter web-client
Tab2: Open the management server web interface at https:// :9443 then login to the management server and keep this tab open
Switch to Tab1 and then create the cluster
