Dell Equallogic Virtual Storage Manager (VSM) reinstall fails to register in vCenter

A nice little bug I've found in the Dell VSM appliance is that if you reinstall it (blowing away the original VM and deploying it from the OVF again) it won't register correctly in vCenter. 

Even removing the old vCenter plugin entries through the vCenter web gui won't fix it

The simple workaround is to assign a new IP to the new VM and it'll register fine.
