IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2

Uninstall event synchronization manually

Use the instructions for the appropriate operating system to remove event synchronization manually.

HP11

  1. Stop the situation update forwarder long-running process if it is still running:

    1. Find the long-running process using: 

        ps –ef

    2. Use the kill command to remove the process: 

        kill –9 process_number

  2. Run the following command to determine whether the operating system still knows that the event synchronization component is there: 

      swlist -v TecEvntSyncInstaller

    If it is there but all the code has been deleted, or just the uninstaller is deleted, you can try this command: 

      swremove TecEvntSyncInstaller

  3. If errors are returned saying that TecEvntSyncInstaller cannot be removed due to consistency or dependency checks, create a file named something like "remove_EvntSync.txt" and add these two lines: 

      enforce_dependencies=false
enforce_scripts=false

    Then run the swremove command as follows: 

      swremove -X remove_EvntSync.txt TecEvntSyncInstaller

    The -X option tells the swremove command to ignore checks and dependencies and remove the files regardless.

  4. Remove any event synchronization directories that are left behind.

    Remove any directories found in OM_TEC including OM_TEC itself. OM_TEC is found in $BINDIR/TME/TEC. To use $BINDIR you must run the following command: 

      . /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh

    If the installation was for Netcool/OMNIbus, remove files from the location indicated during installation.

Windows

  1. Stop the situation update forwarder long running process if it is still running:

    1. In the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools, then Services.

    2. Find the Tivoli Situation Update Forwarder service, and right-click it and select Stop.

  2. Go to operating system directory (C:\windows or C:\winnt), and open the vpd.properties file.

  3. Remove all lines that have itmTecEvntSyncProduct, EvntSyncForwarder, itmTecEvntSyncLapComp or EvntSyncForwarderWin in them.

  4. Remove any event synchronization directories that are left behind.

    Remove any directories found in OM_TEC including OM_TEC itself. OM_TEC is found in %BINDIR%/TME/TEC. To use %BINDIR% you must run the C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\Tivoli\setup_env.cmd command. If the installation was for Netcool/OMNIbus, remove the files from the location indicated during installation.

AIX

  1. Stop the situation update forwarder long running process if it is still running:

    1. Find the long running process using: 

        ps –ef

    2. Use the kill command to remove the process: 

        kill –9 process_number

  2. Go to operating system directory (this is typically /usr/lib/objrepos) and open the vpd.properties file.

  3. Remove all lines that have itmTecEvntSyncProduct, EvntSyncForwarder, itmTecEvntSyncLapComp or EvntSyncForwarderWin in them.

  4. Remove any event synchronization directories that remain.

    Remove any directories found in OM_TEC including OM_TEC itself. OM_TEC is found in $BINDIR/TME/TEC. To use $BINDIR you must run the following command: 

      . /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh

    If the installation was for Netcool/OMNIbus, remove the files from the location specified during installation.

Linux

  1. Stop the situation update forwarder long running process if it is still running:

    1. Find the long running process using: 

        ps –ef

        kill –9 process_number

  2. Go to operating system directory (this is typically / or /root) and open the file vpd.properties.

  3. Remove all lines that have itmTecEvntSyncProduct, EvntSyncForwarder, itmTecEvntSyncLapComp or EvntSyncForwarderWin in them.

  4. Remove any event synchronization directories that are left behind.

    Remove any directories found in OM_TEC including OM_TEC itself. OM_TEC is found in $BINDIR/TME/TEC. To use $BINDIR you must run the following command: 

      . /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh
