Uninstalling OpenSwitch

InstallShield includes an uninstall feature that removes the OpenSwitch components you have installed.

You can invoke the uninstall procedure using either the GUI or console methods. Sybase recommends that you use the GUI method.

Before uninstalling OpenSwitch, shut down the OpenSwitch server if it is running.

  1. Log in to OpenSwitch as “admin” using isql.

  2. At a command prompt, enter:

    rp_shutdown
    

StepsUninstalling OpenSwitch in GUI mode

  1. Go to $SYBASE/uninstall/OSWSuite directory, and launch the uninstaller:

    ./uninstall
    
  2. If you have other Sybase products installed, select the OpenSwitch components to uninstall.

    If you installed OpenSwitch in a directory that has no other Sybase products, accept the default selections and click Next.

  3. When the Uninstall Summary window displays, verify that the selections are correct and click Next.

    NoteIf the selections are not correct, click Back and reselect the components to uninstall.

    A message displays “Uninstalling Sybase OpenSwitch Suite.”

  4. When the message displays that OpenSwitch was successfully uninstalled, click Finish to close the uninstaller.

  5. If there are no other Sybase products installed in the directory where OpenSwitch was installed, manually remove any remaining OpenSwitch files and directories after running the uninstallation process.

    Table 2-2 lists the files remaining after the uninstallation process if you have uninstalled all features.
