Uninstalling the product on i5/OS

You can uninstall a WebSphere Application Server for i5/OS product by running commands from your iSeries server.

About this task

Use this procedure to uninstall a feature pack from a WebSphere Application Server for i5/OS, Version 6.1, installation.

Procedure

  1. Uninstall the feature pack from your WebSphere Application Server for i5/OS installation on your iSeries server.
    To uninstall the Web Services feature pack, run the following command from the Qshell command line:
    app_server_root/uninstall_websv/uninstall
    To uninstall the product and all user data (profiles), run the following command:
    app_server_root/uninstall_websv/uninstall
       -OPT removeProfilesOnUninstall="true"

    Uninstalling the feature pack from the iSeries server removes feature pack libraries and directories. If you do not specify the option to delete all the profiles when you invoke the uninstall command, the user-defined information is not removed but you can reuse the information only if you reinstall the feature pack. If you later decide that you do not need the user-defined data, you can manually remove it.

    User data consists of directories and files under the profile_root directory, which is the directory specified as the value for the profilePath parameter when creating the profile with the manageprofiles command. Manually delete any files or directories that you no longer need.

  2. If the uninstallation program did not uninstall the feature pack enablement extensions, use the Update Installer to uninstall the enablement extensions.

    See Uninstalling fix packs, interim features, test fixes, or fix packs delivered as a CIP slip install.

Results

After completing the procedure, the feature pack is uninstalled.
