Uninstall the Application Client from IBM i operating systems using response files

We can uninstall the Application Client using Installation Manager response files.

Use Installation Manager, we can work with response files to uninstall the Application Client.

  1. Sign on to the IBM i system with a user profile that has *ALLOBJ and *SECADM special authorities.

  2. On a CL command line, run the STRQSH command to start the Qshell command shell.

  3. Use a response file to uninstall the Application Client.

    Complete one of the following actions:

    • From a command line on each of the systems from which to uninstall the Application Client, run the uninstall script (which uses the uninstall.xml response file in the same directory) to uninstall the product. For example:

        app_client_root/uninstall/uninstall

    • From a command line on each of the systems from which to uninstall the Application Client, change to the eclipse/tools subdirectory in the directory where you installed Installation Manager and use the uninstall.xml response file in the same directory to uninstall the product. For example:

        ./imcl input app_client_root/uninstall/uninstall.xml -log $HOME/WASFiles/temp/uninstall_log.xml

    • From a command line on each of the systems from which to uninstall the Application Client, change to the eclipse/tools subdirectory in the directory where you installed Installation Manager, and use a response file created to uninstall the Application Client. For example:

        ./imcl input $HOME/AppClientFiles/temp/uninstall_response_file.xml -log $HOME/AppClientFiles/temp/uninstall_log.xml

      Go to the IBM Installation Manager Version 1.6 Information Center or the IBM Installation Manager Version 1.5 Information Center for more information.

  4. Optional: Uninstall IBM Installation Manager.

    Important: Before we can uninstall IBM Installation Manager, you must uninstall all of the packages that were installed by Installation Manager.

    Read the IBM Installation Manager Version 1.6 Information Center or the IBM Installation Manager Version 1.5 Information Center for information about using the uninstall script to perform this procedure.

The app_client_root/uninstall/uninstall.xml file is an example of a response file for uninstalling the product.
