IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Application Diagnostics, Version 7.1.0.1

Managing Server - UNIX

It is generally recommended that you uninstall data collectors before you uninstall the Managing Server so that the uninstallation program can delete data collector registration information from the Managing Server.

See the chapters for uninstalling data collectors in one of the following publications:


To uninstall the Managing Server:

  1. If running the uninstallation from a remote computer, do the following: enter xhost + hostname on the computer where you are sitting. The hostname is the fully qualified host name of the computer on which the Managing Server has being installed.

  2. Log in as the root user on the computer on which the Managing Server has been installed.

  3. Export the DISPLAY variable. Complete one of the following options:


    How to export the DISPLAY variable

    If running the uninstallation from a remote computer Enter
    export DISPLAY=local_machine:0.0

    Where local_machine is the fully qualified host name of the computer where you are sitting.

    If running the uninstallation from the computer where the Managing Server is being installed Enter
    export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0

  4. Export the LANG variable. Run the following command:
    export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

  5. If it is not already stopped, stop the Managing Server.

  6. If the server instance of WAS that is being used by the Managing Server is stopped, start the WAS.

  7. Back up files from the Managing Server, embedded IBM DB2, and embedded IBM WAS installations (including log files) that you still need.

  8. Run the uninstallation program with the following file: MS_home/_uninst/uninstaller.bin. The Welcome panel is displayed.

    IBM WAS information entered during installation

    Field What to do

    If using Network Deployment, provide the host name of the deployment manager instead.

    SOAP Connector Port

    Enter the SOAP port setting (Default 8880). This connector port was used by the IBM WAS to send commands using the SOAP.

    The SOAP port is identified in the AppServer_home/profiles/profile_name/config/cells/cell_name/nodes/node_name/serverindex.xml file of the instance of IBM WAS that the Managing Server will use.

    If using Network Deployment, provide the SOAP port of the deployment manager instead.

    User Name

    Type the name of the user running WebSphere. This is the user you use to log into the IBM WAS administrative console for the instance of IBM WAS being used by the Managing Server.

    Type the user password.

    Click Next. The Choose Embedded Components to Uninstall panel is displayed.

  12. To uninstall embedded versions of IBM WAS and IBM DB2, select Embedded WAS Uninstallation,Embedded DB2 Uninstallation, or both, and click Next. Note when you choose both of these options, then you will need to manually delete the Managing Server installation folder and some sub folders after the uninstallation completes. The Review Uninstallation Information is displayed.

  13. Verify the information in this panel and click Uninstall to continue the uninstallation.

  14. When the uninstallation panel is complete, the Finish panel is displayed.

  15. If you chose not to uninstall IBM WAS , stop the instance of IBM WAS that was being used by the Managing Server. Delete the MS_home directory and any subdirectories.

  16. If you choose not to uninstall DB2, complete one of the following options:

  17. If you need to keep any of the Managing Server installation log files in the /var/ibm/tivoli/common/CYN/logs directory (or another directory you specified as the log directory), back them up. This is a list of installation log files for the Managing Server:

    • msg-install.log

    • trace-install.log

    The log file names might include numeric affixes.

  18. Delete the installation log files in the /var/ibm/tivoli/common/CYN/logs directory.
