Uninstalling all packages installed with IBM Spectrum Conductor

You can use an uninstall script to uninstall all the packages installed with IBM® Spectrum Conductor.

  • You must be logged in as root if you installed IBM Spectrum Conductor as root. If you didn’t install as root, you must log on with the cluster administrator ID.
  • If you installed IBM Spectrum Conductor to a local environment, you must complete this task on each host from which you want to remove IBM Spectrum Conductor.
  • You must stop EGO on all hosts before running the uninstall script.
  • If you performed a rolling upgrade, uninstall the previous version's packages only after your rolling upgrade is successful, tested, and you do not plan to roll back the upgrade. After you uninstall the old package, rolling back is no longer supported.
  1. From a command console, stop all services:
    egosh service stop all
  2. Shut down the cluster:
    egosh ego shutdown all
  3. Change to the uninstall directory: $EGO_TOP/uninstall
  4. Run the uninstall script as follows:
    • For a local environment, run the uninstall script on each host from which you want uninstall IBM Spectrum Conductor.
    • For a shared environment, run the uninstall script.
    In either installation scenario, you can use any rpm uninstall arguments (such as --dbpath or -evv). The script supports all command arguments.
    sh conductorsparkuninstall-2.3.0.sh
    Note:
    • If you encounter No such file or directory warning messages, you can safely ignore these warnings; the uninstall script continues to successfully uninstall the applicable packages.
    • If you installed IBM Spectrum Conductor to a custom dbpath (not default) directory, when you run this uninstall command, also specify the --dbpath option, as follows:
      sh conductorsparkuninstall-2.3.0.sh --dbpath dbpath_location
  5. Delete the $EGO_TOP installation directory.
    Note: Delete the $EGO_TOP installation directory only if you want to remove everything under this directory. Do not complete this step if you are using a multihead environment with IBM Spectrum Symphony.
You have successfully uninstalled IBM Spectrum Conductor.
