Uninstalling the product on z/OS

Use IBM® Installation Manager to uninstall copies of the product code for WebSphere® Application Server for z/OS®, Web Server plug-ins for IBM WebSphere Application Server for z/OS, or IBM HTTP Server for WebSphere Application Server for z/OS.

Before you begin

Note: If you use the Installation Manager portable installation method, you can follow the following instructions to uninstall a single product in a multi-product portable installation. For a single-product portable installation, or if all products in a multi-product portable installation are no longer needed, you can delete the file system that contains the portable installation.

Make sure that you no longer need this particular copy of the product code.
