Silently uninstalling a TADDM server

To silently uninstall a TADDM server, you must first create an uninstallation response file.

Note: Silent uninstallation is not supported if a firewall exists between IBM® Tivoli® CCMDB or IBM SmartCloud Control Desk and TADDM resources.

To run a silent uninstall of the server using a response file, complete the following steps:

  1. Create an uninstall response file containing the following values, with a text editor:
    REMOVE_ALL_FILES=true
    Valid values are true or false.
    DROP_DB2_DB=true
    Valid values are true or false
    UNINSTALL_DB2=true
    Valid values are true or false

    A sample uninstall response file is provided in the sample folder.

    • For Linux®, AIX®, and Linux on System z® operating systems: support/samples/
    • For Windows operating systems: support\samples\
  2. Run one of the following uninstall commands:
    • For Linux, AIX, and Linux on System z operating systems:
      TADDM_installDir/_uninstall/uninstall –i silent –f /tmp/uninstall.rsp
    • For Windows operating systems:
      TADDM_installDir\_uninstall\uninstall.exe  –i silent –f \tmp\uninstall.rsp

      In the preceding examples, the uninstall response file created is named uninstall.rsp.

You can also run the uninstall from the command line:
  • For Linux, AIX, and Linux on System z operating systems:
    TADDM_installDir/_uninstall/uninstall –i silent DREMOVE_ALL_FILES=true
     –DDROP_DB2_DB=true –DUNSTALL_DB2=true
  • For Windows operating systems:
    TADDM_installDir\_uninstall\uninstall.exe  –i silent DREMOVE_ALL_FILES=true
     –DDROP_DB2_DB=true –DUNINSTALL_DB2=true
