Guardium KTAP is not removed after uninstalling STAP on HPUX

Troubleshooting


Problem

After uninstalling the Guardium STAP the KTAP module is still loaded on HPUX.

Symptom

After uninstalling STAP, to check if the KTAP is loaded run the command "kcmodule | grep ktap". If the STAP uninstalled successfully no ktap module should appear here.

Note: The module will still appear in the result of the command "lsdev | grep ktap". This does not mean it is loaded.

Resolving The Problem

To remove the KTAP module first run the following command


    kcmodule -s | grep ktap


    This will return a line like this where <version number> is a number.


      ktap<version number>        loaded   best          loadable, unloadable

Then run the following replacing <version number> with the number from above.


    kcmodule -d ktap<version number>=uninstall


The KTAP should be unloaded and should not restart after reboot.
