About this task

To uninstall the packages, you must log in to the system using the same user account that you used to install the product packages.

A package cannot be uninstalled when another package has a dependency on it, unless the dependent package is also selected to be uninstalled. For example, you can uninstall the WebSphere® Application Server Network Deployment installation underlying WSRR, as long as other products are not dependent on WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment.

Important: Use Installation Manager to uninstall the WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment installation underlying WSRR. Do not use the ISMP-based uninstaller included with the product. Doing so corrupts your installation of Installation Manager.

Note: Uninstalling WSRR will not delete any created profiles. These profiles, including deployment manager profiles, must be removed manually, to remove these profiles please see the instructions in the following topic Deleting profiles using the manageprofiles command.
