IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2

Perform a silent uninstallation on a Linux or UNIX computer

To uninstall IBM Tivoli Monitoring components and monitoring agents unattended (that is, without having to specify parameters interactively).

  1. Stop all agents and servers that you are going to remove. Use the ./cinfo -r command to see a list of running process, and then use the itmcmd command to stop the appropriate processes.

  2. To select individual components or agents

      cd install_dir/bin


    uninstall.sh [-f] [-i] [-h install_directory] [product platformCode]

    ...where...

    -f

    Forces delete, suppressing confirmation messages and prompts.

    -i

    Ignores all running processes.

    product

    Is the two-letter code for the product to be uninstalled.

    platformCode

    Is the platform code for the product (such as aix513, sol286, hp11, and so forth: see IBM Tivoli product, platform, and component codes).
    Repeat the command for each agent or component you want to remove on the target computer.

  3. To remove all components and agents enter the following command: 

      uninstall.sh REMOVE EVERYTHING


Results

When the uninstallation is complete, the uninstall command returns to the command prompt. Some messages may be written to the screen. There may be additional steps, depending on the component being uninstalled. For example, if you uninstall the Warehouse Proxy, the warehouse database is not removed and historical situations on the agent are not stopped (see Uninstall the Warehouse Proxy).

If the uninstallation is unsuccessful, some messages may be written to the screen. See the installation log in the install_dir/logs/product_nametime_stamp.log directory or the for more information. If all components have been removed, the log is at the root.


What to do next

If for any reason, the UNIX uninstallation is not successful, run to remove all Tivoli Monitoring directories:
