Select IBM® WebSphere Application Server V7 Feature

Notes:
Uninstall the feature pack using Installation Manager before uninstalling WebSphere Application Server
Version 7.0.0.x.
If you uninstall WebSphere Application Server Version 7.0.0.x
without uninstalling the feature pack and then reinstall WebSphere Application Server Version 7.0
to the same location, Installation Manager incorrectly concludes that
the feature pack is installed on the new WebSphere Application Server Version 7.0
installation.
If you try to use Installation Manager to remove a feature such
as the Samples or one of the language packages from an ISMP-installed
package that is imported into Installation Manager, removal is blocked
and an error message is displayed. Use the ISMP-based installation
tools to remove any features from a package that is imported into
Installation Manager.
Ensure that all Version 7.0 feature packs have been uninstalled.
Start Installation Manager.
Click Uninstall.
In the Uninstall Packages window, select the WebSphere Application Server Version 7.0.0.x
installation and click Next.
Review the summary information, and click Uninstall.
If the uninstallation is successful, the program displays a message
that indicates successful uninstallation.
If the uninstallation is not successful, click View log to
troubleshoot the problem.
Click Finish.
Click File > Exit to close Installation Manager.
Optional: Uninstall IBM Installation Manager.
