command view uninstall

[Jeff Hagstrom]

How do I uninstall command view? It's on the machine, but no one ever used it, it's an older version. I want to install the rigth version, but I need to get the old one out. By removing command view, that will not affect anything in the system? It won't bring the drives down or anything?

Jeff,

I would have thought you would just install the new version over the old. Why do you say you have to remove first?

[Jeff Hagstrom]

the notes in the command view say to remove any old version of command view first.

Jeff,

Do we talk about commandview sdm (for VA7xxx)?

Depending on what version is installed, you'll need to swremove some packages:

CMDVIEWSDM
HPOVLIC
HPOVSAMDA
HPOVSAMHA
HPOVSAMHB
HPOVSAMJR
HPOVSAMSG
SMI_S_VA
SSLIC

If you select only CMDVIEWSDM, the util will tell you what other software need to be removed too.

It will likely help to safe some information first:

/opt/sanmgr/commandview/server/config/PanConfigParams.txt
/opt/sanmgr/commandview/server/config/ContactInfo.txt
/opt/sanmgr/hostagent/config/access.dat
/opt/sanmgr/hostagent/config/commIpAddr.txt

After swremove, you can delete some directories, if they are no longer in use:

/opt/sanmgr
/etc/opt/sanmgr
/var/opt/sanmgr

Finally, find and install a current version:

1.09.02 for all hp-ux up to 11.23
1.09.03 for 11.31
