Answer


You can follow the below steps which should remove the STAP from the startup entry for the respective OS types.



Windows:

    • Open Services
        • Go to computer management --> Services and Applications--> Services
    • look for the following services

      • GUARDIUM Database Monitor
      GUARDIUM DC Connector
      GUARDIUM_STAP
    • Right click on each of the above service, go to "properties" and make start up type as "manual" instead of "automatic".

Linux:
    • Connect with root user
    • Run the following command
        • chkconfig --list
          You will see an upguard service in the list.
    • Run the following command

      • chkconfig --del upguard
        This will remove STAP service from startup list.


Other Unix :
    • Open the following inittab file for edit ...

      • /etc/inittab
    • If a GIM managed STAP :-
        • Comment the gsvr and gim lines with the comment character ':' (colon) or '#' (hash) depending on unix type and save the file
    • If a non GIM installed STAP was installed :-
        • Comment the utap line with the comment character ':' (colon) or '#' (hash) depending on unix type and save the file
    • Run the following command to effect the change
        • init q
