IBM Tivoli Directory Server, Version 6.3

Options files for silent uninstallation of servers and language packs

See the following sections for information about the silent uninstallation options file for the servers and the language packs. (You cannot change the client uninstallation options file.)

Server uninstallation options file

The following text is in the server uninstallation options file, UnInstallServer.txt, provided with Tivoli Directory Server:

#Sample response file for uninstall
#(Lines beginning with # are comments)
# Be sure there are no blank lines in this file!
#
# The following 4 lines MUST be present
-silent
-G createDirectoryResponse="yes"
-G replaceExistingResponse="yesToAll"
-G removeModifiedResponse="yesToAll"
#
# Select the features to be uninstalled. If a feature was never installed 
# then its line must be commented out.
# The "activeForUninstall" property specifies whether you want a feature to be 
# uninstalled.  
# The "activeForUninstall" property for a feature defaults to true if the feature is 
# currently installed; it must be set to false if you want to leave it installed. 
# The default action, if no features are specified, is to uninstall all features  
# that are currently installed.
-P ClientFeature.activeForUninstall=true
-P JavaClientFeature.activeForUninstall=true
-P BaseServerFeature.activeForUninstall=true
-P ProxyServerFeature.activeForUninstall=true
-P ServerFeature.activeForUninstall=true
-P WebadminFeature.activeForUninstall=true
-P DB2Feature.activeForUninstall=true
-P GSKITFeature.activeForUninstall=true
-P AppSrvFeature.activeForUninstall=true
# This must be last line. Be sure no blank lines or carriage controls follow!

You can edit the features lines to disable a feature from being uninstalled. For example, to indicate that you do not want to uninstall the IBM Tivoli Directory Server Web Administration Tool, change

-P WebadminFeature.activeForUninstall=true

to

-P WebadminFeature.activeForUninstall=false

Language packs options file

The following text is in the language packs uninstallation options file, UnInstallLP.txt, provided with Tivoli Directory Server:

# Select the features to be uninstalled. If a feature was never installed the
# Sample of a response file for the Language pack Uninstall
# (Lines beginning with # are comments)
# Be sure there are no blank lines in this file!
#
# The following 4 lines MUST be present
-silent
-G createDirectoryResponse="yes"
-G replaceExistingResponse="yesToAll"
-G removeModifiedResponse="yesToAll"
#
#
# 
# The "activeForUninstall" property specifies whether you want a feature to be 
# uninstalled.  
# Unless otherwise specified, the "activeForUninstall" property for a all  
# installed feature by default is set to true; a property value must be set
# to false if you want to leave its feature installed. 
# The default action, if no property values are specified, is to uninstall all  
# features that are currently installed.
# The following list of features should only include languages installed on 
# your system.
# If a language feature was already installed and you do not wish to uninstall  
# it then uncomment its property entry. This will set the activeForUninstall  
# property value to false and keep the corresponding language feature installed.
#-P GermanXlations.activeForUninstall=false
#-P FrenchXlations.activeForUninstall=false
#-P ItalianXlations.activeForUninstall=true
#-P SpanishXlations.activeForUninstall=false
#-P JapaneseXlations.activeForUninstall=false
#-P KoreanXlations.activeForUninstall=false
#-P BrazilianXlations.activeForUninstall=false
#-P SChineseXlations.activevForUninstall=false
#-P TChineseXlations.activeForUninstall=false
# This must be last line. Be sure no blank lines or carriage controls follow!

By default, no language packs are uninstalled. To uninstall the language pack for a language, edit the line for that language. Remove the # character from the line, and change false to true. For example, to uninstall the French language pack, change

#-P FrenchXlations.activeForUninstall=false

to

-P FrenchXlations.activeForUninstall=true
