Manual uninstall on AIX requires odmclean.sh and aixclean.sh to resolve installation problems for WebSphere Application Server
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
The files odmclean.sh and aixclean.sh are not provided, as referenced, in WebSphere Application Server hard-copy documentation.
 
Cause
The AIX® registry contains entries that must be removed before performing an install of WebSphere Application Server products.
 
Resolving the problem
Updated scripts published
The "odmclean.sh" and "aixclean.sh" scripts previously attached to this technote have been superseded by new scripts. Hard-copy documentation for WebSphere Application Server products may still refer to these two scripts, but the scripts are no longer available.

Instead of using "odmclean.sh" and "aixclean.sh" as recommended in older documentation, please refer to technote 1198862 and follow the directions provided. The new scripts which replace "odmclean.sh" and "aixclean.sh" are attached to that separate technote.
