Uninstalling the SRC Software on a Solaris Platform
Use the uninstall program only if you installed the SRC software or components with the GUI installation program. If you installed the application or components with the Solaris package tools, you must also use these tools to uninstall the software. You can also use these tools directly to uninstall SRC components that you installed by using the GUI. For example, to remove the NIC package, issue the following command, and respond as prompted by the process:
pkgrm UMCnicThe GUI program to uninstall the SRC software is a wrapper around the Solaris packages that simplifies the removal of SRC software components.
The uninstall program checks whether any processes currently running belong to the component being uninstalled. If the program finds an active process, you can do one of the following:
- Exit from the uninstall program.
- Have the uninstall program force the process to halt. The program generates a warning if halting is not a safe option.
- Manually stop the process, and then continue to uninstall the software with the uninstall program.
When you use the uninstall program to uninstall the software, all the session output is captured and appended to a special log file that is created if it does not already exist. The sessions are captured to the file /opt/UMC/var/InstallerData/solpkg_Uninstall.log.
When the process to uninstall the software has been completed, the Uninstall SDX dialog box displays only components that you did not select for removal. You can verify removal of the selected packages by starting the uninstall program again. Packages that were successfully removed will not be displayed. If you previously selected all packages for removal, the program displays an alert indicating that there are no SRC components available for removal.
To uninstall the SRC software by using the GUI program:
/opt/UMC/sae/etc/sae stop
For information how to stop other SRC services, see the associated documentation.
- Access the directory that contains the uninstall program.
cd /opt/UMC/uninstall- Start the uninstall program.
./sh uninstall_SDX- Select one or more of the displayed packages in the Uninstall SDX dialog box, and click Uninstall.
- Click OK in the Please Confirm dialog to proceed with the package removal.
