Uninstalling

To uninstall Rational® Adapter for HP ALM, remove the project associations in the CLM project areas to HP ALM, delete server friend relationships between HP ALM and CLM, uninstall the adapter from the application server that you installed the adapter into, and delete any license files.

Procedure

  1. For each CLM product, delete its project associations with the HP ALM server by clicking the x icon in the Actions column of each project association that you want to delete. To find the project associations that you want to delete, see Linking between HP ALM projects and CLM project areas.
  2. Delete server friends.
    1. Point your web browser to https://[fully qualified hostname]:[port]/ccm/admin.
    2. In the Communication pane, click Consumers(Inbound).
    3. On the OAuth Consumers page, in the Authorized Keys section, hover over a consumer name and click the Remove Consumer icon in the Actions column.
    4. Confirm that you want to delete the consumer name.
  3. Stop the Apache Tomcat application server, if you selected this server when you installed the adapter.
  4. Uninstall the product using Installation Manager or command-line commands.
    • Installation Manager
      1. Start IBM® Installation Manager.
      2. Select the Uninstall wizard.
      3. Choose the package group and the package to uninstall, and follow the instructions on the wizard to complete the uninstall process.
    • Command-line commands
      • For Windows On Windows, to uninstall use the following command:
         IBMIMc -silent -input HPInstallDir/silent-uninstall.xml -sVP -noSplash
      • For Linux On UNIX systems, to uninstall use the following command:
         IBMIM -silent -input HPInstallDir/silent-uninstall.xml -sVP -noSplash

      These Installation Manager response files are tailored for the adapter to uninstall. You can find these response files in your Installation Manager directory.

    This is the sample response file that is used to run a silent uninstall. You can find this response file where you extracted the adapter. If you have removed the extracted adapter files, you can create a response file following this code.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!--This script assumes that the package id used for install is the default IBM Rational Adapter for HP ALM. If this is not true the profile section should be updated  --><agent-input>
    <uninstall modify='false'>
    <offering id='com.ibm.rational.oslc.adapter.hpqm' profile='IBM Rational Adapter for HP ALM' features='main.feature'/>
    </uninstall>
    </agent-input>
  5. Delete any license files that you copied to the properties/version directory for these locations:
    • One or more CCM, RM, and QM application servers that the adapter communicates with
    • One or more HP ALM servers that the adapter communicates with
  6. Check the HPInstallDir directory and delete any remaining files after the uninstall process finishes.
