Uninstalling interim fixes silently

You can uninstall an interim fix for IBM® Business Process Manager using the command-line mode of the Installation Manager.

Before you begin

You must log into the system using the same user account that you used to install the product packages.

Procedure

To uninstall an interim fix silently, complete the following steps:

Open a command prompt, and change directories to the /eclipse/tools directory under Installation Manager.
Important: If you are running Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2008, start your command prompt by right-clicking and selecting Run as administrator.
Make the appropriate replacements and run the following command:
```
imcl uninstall fixID -installationDirectory installationDirectory -log logLocation
```
1. Replace fixID with the ID of the interim fix. The ID can be found in the repository.xml file in the directory where you extracted the interim fix, in the fix id element. For example:
```
<fix id="7.5.1.0-WS-BPMADVWESB-IFJR39658" version="0.0.0.20111115_1047" offeringId="EnhancedFix" offeringVersion="0.0.0.EnhancedFix">
```
2. Replace installationDirectory with the location where you installed IBM Business Process Manager.
3. Replace logLocation with the location and file name to log the information.
For example:
```
C:\Program Files\IBM\Installation Manager\eclipse\tools>imcl uninstall 7.5.1.0-WS-BPMADVWESB-IFJR39658 -installationDirectory C:\IBM\BPM75 -log logfix.txt
```

Results

The log (specified by the -log parameter) contains no error messages if uninstalling is successful. The command line shows a message that the fix was uninstalled.
