Use the following procedure to uninstall the Tivoli® Storage
Manager
Linux 64-bit client.
Procedure
To uninstall a previously installed Tivoli Storage
Manager client package, enter the following commands to
remove the packages for journal-based backup, the backup-archive client, the API, and the IBM Global Security Kit (GSKit). Instructions to
uninstall the filepath component are provided with the source code for filepath, when you obtain the
software from IBM®.
- To uninstall only the journal-based backup components, remove both the
tivsm-jbb and the filepath component. The tivsm-jbb
package depends on the filepath package. Uninstall the tivsm-jbb package first.
- sudo dpkg -r tivsm-jbb
- sudo dpkg -r tivsm-filepath
- Uninstall the backup-archive client packages:
- If you installed the optional tivsm-bacit package, uninstall it before you
uninstall the client:
sudo dpkg -r tivsm-bacit
- Uninstall the backup-archive client.
sudo dpkg -r tivsm-ba
Note: If language packages are installed in a Version 7.1.2 or earlier client, you must remove them
before you remove the API package. Enter the following command, and replace
xx-xx
with the language code for each additional language that you installed. For a list of language code
identifiers, see
Table 1.
dpkg -r tivsm-msg.xx-xx

- Uninstall any products that depend on the API, such as IBM
Tivoli Storage Manager Data Protection products. Any API-dependent
products must be uninstalled before you uninstall the API package. If you uninstall an API-dependent
product, you must reinstall it after you install a newer version of the backup-archive client and
API packages. Consult the documentation of the dependent product to determine what you need to do to
prevent data loss when you uninstall and reinstall the products.
- If you installed the optional API common inventory package (tivsm-apicit),
uninstall it before you uninstall the API package. Use the following command to uninstall the
package:
sudo dpkg -r tivsm-apicit
- Uninstall the API package by using the following command:
sudo dpkg -r tivsm-api64
- To remove the GSKit 64-bit packages, enter the following command:
sudo dpkg -r gskcrypt64 gskssl64
