AutoConfigurer is a process of deleting "RETIRED" resources from vRA 8.x environment.
The moment it's marked as retired in the next data collection cycle it's deleted from vRA
Here's a simple test performed in my lab
Deployed a test deployment
Here are the details of the deployment
Deployment details on the vCenter
Checked the latest data collection if it happened
Powered off the virtual machine which belongs to the deployment
Deleted the virtual machine
Data Collection yet to start in 4 minutes
Deployment History of this machine
Detected as powered off
Data Collection about to be executed
Remember , this machine or resource has already been deleted from the vCenter
After the new data collection cycle is complete
This is where your AutoConfigurer will delete the resource after marking it as RETIRED
