Uninstalling applications with the wsadmin tool

Why and when to perform this task

Steps for this task

  1. Invoke the AdminApp object commands interactively, in a script, or use the wsadmin -c command from an operating system command prompt.
  2. Issue the following command:

    Using Jacl:

    $AdminApp uninstall application1

    where:
    $ is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value
    AdminApp is an object supporting application objects management
    uninstall is an AdminApp command
    application1 is the name of the application to uninstall


    Note: Specify the name of the application you want to uninstall, not the name of the Enterprise ARchive (EAR) file.

  3. Save the configuration changes with the following command:

    Using Jacl:

    $AdminConfig save

    Use the reset command of the AdminConfig object to undo changes that you made to your workspace since your last save.

Results

Uninstalling an application removes it from the WebSphere Application Server configuration and from all the servers that the application was installed on. The application binaries (EAR file contents) are deleted from the installation directory. This occurs when the configuration is saved for single server WebSphere Application Server editions or when the configuration changes are synchronized from deployment manager to the individual nodes for network deployment configurations.
