Uninstalling the EM


Procedures on how to uninstall the EM are described in the following sections:

Uninstall Workflow

Uninstalling the EM involves the following:

1. Removing the EM package—Remove the Cisco Access Router Manager software according to the instructions in one of the following sections:

2. Removing the EM package and associated packages—Selectively remove the Cisco Access Router Manager software and all associated EM packages on the system using the install script. For additional information, see the "Removing the EM Package and Associated Packages" section.

Removing the EM Package

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.

Removing Packages Using the cemf install Script

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 Access Router Manager and all required components).


Note   It is recommended that you remove packages using the cemf install script only if Cisco Access Router Manager Series Manager is the only EM you currently have installed.

Some options cannot be removed. For example, Cisco EMF cannot be removed until the EM is removed. Dependent software (for example, Cisco Access Router 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 at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/sw/netmgtsw/ps829/products_installation_and_confi gur ation_guide_book09186a00800ffd0d.html

Removing EM Packages Using the Install Script

You can selectively remove an EM package (e.g., Cisco Access Router Manager server or Cisco Access Router 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 packages are not removed).

If the Cisco Access Router Manager was installed with the customized interface polling rate and you plan to reinstall the EM for coresident purposes, you must uninstall the EM and all associated packages using the -r -all command. For further information, see the "Removing the EM Package and Associated Packages" section.

If the Cisco Access Router Manager was installed with the customized interface polling rate and you plan to reinstall the EM with the customized rate at a future time, the following procedure is applicable.

To remove EM packages using the install script:


Step 1   Ensure you are logged in as a root user on the workstation where the EM package you want to remove is installed.

Step 2   Perform one of the following, as appropriate:

    a. Insert the Cisco 7000 Series Manager CD-ROM and make the CD-ROM area your working directory by entering the following at a command prompt:

cd /cdrom/cdrom0

    b. Navigate to the directory where the EM package exists by entering the following at a command prompt:

cd CEMF_Root/bin

(Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.)

Step 3   Run the intall script by entering the following:

./CAccessRouterMGRinstall -r

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):

[cannot be removed]

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 Access Router Manager server package are installed on a workstation.

REMOVE PACKAGE:
1) Cisco Element Manager Framework — Server [cannot be removed]
2) Cisco Access Router Manager Server — (CEMF Initialization Required)
3) CEMF Server 3.2 Patch 170006-12
4) CEMF Server 3.2 Patch 6.2 (190602-01)
q) Quit
Which package do you wish to remove? (Def:1) [?,q]

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:

Removal of "<package name>" was successful.

At the completion of the installation, the following displays:

The option remove of "uninstall option" was completed successfully.

The EM package is uninstalled (e.g., Cisco Access Router Manager). The associated EM packages, however, remain installed.



Removing the EM Package and Associated Packages

You can selectively remove an EM package and all associated 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 components are removed).

To remove an EM including the associated components using the install script:


Step 1   Ensure that you are logged in as a root user on the workstation where the EM and associated packages you want to remove are installed.

Step 2   Perform one of the following, as appropriate:

    a. Insert the Cisco 7000 Series Manager CD-ROM and make the CD-ROM area your working directory by entering the following at a command prompt:

cd /cdrom/cdrom0

    b. Navigate to the directory where the EM package exists by entering the following at a command prompt:

cd CEMF_Root/bin

(Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.)

Step 3   Run the install script by entering the following:

./CAccessRouterMGRinstall -r -all

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 Access Router 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):

[cannot be removed]

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 Access Router Manager server package are installed on a workstation.

REMOVE PACKAGE:
1) Cisco Element Manager Framework — Server [cannot be removed]
2) Cisco Access Router Manager Server — (CEMF Initialization Required)
3) CEMF Server 3.2 Patch 170006-12
4) CEMF Server 3.2 Patch 6.2 (190602-01)
q) Quit
Which package do you wish to remove? (Def:1) [?,q]

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 (C2636MGRmfor server package or C2636MGRc for client package) and associated packages. 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:

Removal of "<package name>" was successful.

At the completion of the uninstall, the following displays:

The option remove of "uninstall option" was completed successfully.

The EM package and each of its associated components are uninstalled.


Note   If the EM package has been previously removed, you can remove all of its associated components at a later time by entering the following command:
./CAccessRouterMGRinstall -r -all

The following is an example of the terminal window displayed during an uninstall when the Cisco Access Router Manager server package has been previously removed from a workstation.

REMOVE PACKAGE:
1) Cisco Element Manager Framework — Server [cannot be removed]
2) Cisco Access Router Manager Server — (CEMF Initialization Required)
3) CEMF Server 3.2 Patch 170006-12
4) CEMF Server 3.2 Patch 6.2 (190602-01)

q) Quit

Which package do you wish to remove? (Def:1) [?,q]

Select option #2 to remove the associated components.
