IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Uninstall the event synchronization component
Use the following steps to uninstall the event synchronization from your event server.
On Windows 2003 you must run the change user /install command from a command prompt before you begin. This puts the computer into the required “install” mode. After the uninstallation, run the change user /execute command to return the computer to its previous mode.
- Set the Tivoli environment:
or
C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\Tivoli\setup_env.cmd
- Run the following uninstallation program:
You can run this uninstallation program in silent mode (by running the program from the command-line with the -silent parameter) or in console mode (using the -console parameter).
- Follow the prompts in the uninstallation program.
When the uninstallation is completed, you can tell the installer what rule base should be loaded. If initial installation created a new rule base, the value shown in “Rule base name of rule base to be loaded on completion of this uninstall” will be Default, meaning that the Default rule base will be loaded. If the initial installation updated an existing rule base, that rule base name is provided as the value for “Rule base name of rule base to be loaded on completion of this uninstall”. You can override this value by typing in the name of the rule base you want to have loaded.
You can also tell the uninstaller to stop and restart the event server.
You can run the silent uninstallation using default processing or create a template to change the default values. The default processing will load the Default rule base (or the existing rule base was chosen during installation), and will not restart the TEC server.
To create and use a template:
- Create the template:
%BINDIR%\TME\TEC\OM_TEC\_uninst\uninstaller.exe –options-template itmeventsynchU.txt
$BINDIR/TME/TEC/OM_TEC/_uninst/uninstaller.bin –options-template itmeventsynchU.txt
- Modify the template as desired:
- To specify which rule base to load, modify the restartTECU.uRBN file.
- To automatically restart the event server, modify the restartTECU.restartTECU file.
- Set the Tivoli environment.
- Run the uninstallation program as follows:
%BINDIR%\TME\TEC\OM_TEC\_uninst\uninstaller.exe –options itmeventsynchU.txt –silent
$BINDIR/TME/TEC/OM_TEC/_uninst/uninstaller.bin –options itmeventsynchU.txt –silent
If your event server is running on an HP-UX computer, ensure that the _uninst and _jvm directories are successfully removed by the uninstallation program. If they are not, manually delete these directories.
