100 Tech Tips, #89 Silent removal DB2 v9 Runtime Client on Windows

Body

Hello All, 
 
 If you are needing to remove the DB2 v9 Runtime Clients on Windows, you can still do so despite the absence of the db2unins. The following is a technote on how to achieve this using the MSI command:  

1.) msiexec.exe /x {product code} SILENT_MODE="ON" /qn

Runtime client product codes by version are:

    V9.7 - {D69ADB0B-B88E-4339-85BD-6B7AD104F038}
    V9.5 - {5AEE236C-0100-464B-BD2E-883AA70A5D73} 
    V9.1 - {4A54CF0D-EE0D-48CB-8C96-69C720FD16C6}

Example silent install command for DB2 v9.7 runtime client:

msiexec.exe /x {D69ADB0B-B88E-4339-85BD-6B7AD104F038} SILENT_MODE="ON" /qn

Please note IBM DB2 doesn't support the MSI command as that is apart of Microsoft.
