Procedures on how to uninstall the EM are described in the following sections:
Uninstalling the EM involves the following:
1. Removing the EM package—Remove the Cisco 10000 Series Manager software according to the instructions in one of the following sections:
2. Removing the EM package and associated packages—Selectively remove the Cisco 10000 Series Manager software and all associated COM components on the system using the install script. For additional information, see the "Removing the EM Package and Associated Packages" section.
You can uninstall the EMs using the provided scripts. Use one of the following options listed here to remove the software:
You need not uninstall the EM to install a later version. For additional information, see the "Installing the EM" section.
To prepare to remove an EM, log in as a root user on the machine where the EM is installed.
 |
Tip The EM can be uninstalled whether Cisco EMF is initialized (i.e., running) or not. You can choose to determine if Cisco EMF is initialized prior to beginning the uninstall process. For additional information, see the "Checking the Status of the EM" section. If Cisco EMF is initialized, you can choose to stop the application. For further information, see the "Stopping a User Session" section. |
You can use the cemf install script to list all the EM packages installed, and remove selected packages. The cemf install script removes the shared components and the EM package (e.g., Cisco 10000 Series Manager and all required COM components).
Some options cannot be removed. For example, Cisco EMF cannot be removed until the EM is removed. Dependent software (for example, Cisco 10000 Series Manager) must be removed before the primary software (in this case, Cisco EMF) can be removed.
 |
Note To remove packages using the cemf install script, see the Cisco Element Management Framework Installation and Administration guide. |
You can selectively remove an EM package (e.g., Cisco 10000 Series Manager server or Cisco 10000 Series Manager client) using the appropriate install script with the -r command. The -r command allows you to leave the shared components on the system and only remove the EM package (i.e., the associated COMs are not removed).
To remove EM packages using the install script:
Step 2 At a command prompt, enter:
(Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.)
Step 3 After navigating to the Cisco EMF root directory, enter the following:
A list of all the packages installed appears in a terminal window. The options presented in the terminal window includes Cisco EMF (Server or Client), Cisco EMF patches, and each EM (Server or Client) installed.
If an installed package contains dependencies to other installed packages, the following appears beside the affected option(s):
The following figure is an example of a terminal window which would display during an uninstall when the Cisco EMF server package, Cisco EMF patches, and the Cisco 10000 Series Manager server package are installed on a workstation.

Tip Enter ? for help or q to quit. |
Step 4 To uninstall a package, enter the appropriate option at the prompt.
The utility verifies the option selected and a confirmation of the uninstall appears.
If the option entered in the previous step is invalid, the script notifies you of the error, lists the valid option(s), and redisplays the selection prompt. Enter a valid selection and continue.
Step 5 Enter the appropriate confirmation at the prompt (y or n).
The entry of n indicates no and cancels the uninstall procedure and returns you to the previous uninstall terminal window, while an entry of y, indicating yes, proceeds with the uninstall of the selected package.
As the uninstall takes place, the following displays for each package:
At the completion of the installation, the following displays:
The EM package is uninstalled (e.g., Cisco 10000 Series Manager). The associated COM components, however, remain installed.
You can selectively remove an EM package and all associated COM components using the install script with the -r -all command. The -r -all command does not allow you to leave shared components on the system (i.e., the EM package and all associated COMs are removed).
To remove an EM including the associated COM components using the install script:
Step 2 At a command prompt, enter:
(Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.)
Step 3 After navigating to the Cisco EMF root directory, enter the following:
A list of all the packages installed appears in a terminal window. The options presented in the terminal window includes Cisco EMF (Server or Client), Cisco EMF patches, and each EM (Server or Client) installed (e.g., Cisco 10000 Series Manager). Typically EM packages do not required Cisco EMF initialization, and such information appears beside the relevant option.
If an installed package contains dependencies to other installed packages, the following appears beside the affected option(s):
The following figure is an example of the terminal window displayed during an uninstall when the Cisco EMF server package, Cisco EMF patches, and the Cisco 10000 Series Manager server package are installed on a workstation.

Tip Enter ? for help or q to quit. |
Step 4 To uninstall a package, enter the appropriate option at the prompt.
The utility verifies the option selected and lists the packages to be uninstalled, including the EM (C10kMm for server package or C10kMc for client package) and COMs. A confirmation of the uninstall appears.
If the option entered in the previous step is invalid, the script notifies you of the error, lists the valid option(s), and redisplays the selection prompt. Enter a valid selection and continue.
Step 5 Enter the appropriate confirmation at the prompt (y or n).
The entry of n indicates no and cancels the uninstall procedure and returns you to the previous uninstall terminal window, while an entry of y, indicating yes, proceeds with the uninstall of the selected package.
As each package is unistalled, the following displays:
At the completion of the uninstall, the following displays:
The EM package and each of its associated COM components are uninstalled.
