Uninstalling the prerequisites

After uninstalling the WebSphere® Business Monitor, you must uninstall all the prerequisites that have been installed using the Launchpad.

In the most basic, on the Windows platform, use the Add/Remove Programs icon on the Control Panel. In the Installed Programs list, Change/Remove each of the WebSphere Business Monitor prerequisites based on existing documentation for uninstalling associated with these products. On the AIX platform, please refer to the existing documentation for uninstalling each of these products.

Consider the following important steps for the uninstallation of the prerequisites:
  1. After uninstalling the WebSphere Process Server, use DB2® to drop the CEI databases Event and WPRCSDB. Prior to reinstalling WebSphere Process Server using Launchpad, you will need to delete the WebSphere Process Server root directory located under C:\IBM\WebSphere\ProcServer (Launchpad default WebSphere Process Server directory). You will also need to remove the WebSphere Process Server installation log files from the system’s %temp% directory.
  2. After uninstalling the WebSphere Application Server and prior to reinstalling it again using Launchpad, you will need to delete the WebSphere Application Server home directory and the installation log files from the following locations: C:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer (Launchpad default WebSphere Application Server directory) %temp%\*.*
  3. After uninstalling the WebSphere Portal and prior to reinstalling it again using Launchpad, you will need to delete the WebSphere Portal home directory and the installation log files from the following locations: C:\IBM\WebSphere\PortalServer (Launchpad default WebSphere Portal directory) %temp%\*.*
