Use a response file to uninstall maintenance silently.
Follow these steps to uninstall maintenance silently:
The following response file demonstrates how to uninstall a fix pack silently.
################################################################################ # # This is the silent install response file for uninstalling maintenance packages # using the update installer. # # A common use of an options file is to run the wizard in silent mode. This lets # the options file author specify wizard settings without having to run the # wizard in graphical or console mode. To use this options file for silent mode # execution, *uncomment* and modify the parameters defined within. # # Use the following command line when running the wizard from the update # installer directory: # # update -options responsefiles/uninstall.txt -silent # # Enclose all values within a single pair of double quotes. # ################################################################################ ################################################################################ # # Used to input the maintenance backup package filename to be uninstalled. # This is the same filename as the package that was originally installed. # A maintenance package can only be uninstalled if a backup package exists. # # For example: -W backup.package="PQ20029.pak" # # Note: If you do not specify a package, then a default of the last installed maintenance # package is used, as the following example demonstrate: # -W backup.package="6.1.0.1-WEBSV-FEP-WinX32-FP000001.pak" ################################################################################ # # Used to modify the product install location that will be updated. # This value should be left commented out if the Update Installer is # being run from the recommended location, as the following example demonstrates: # # For example: -W product.location="C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer" # # Note: The product install location needs to be specified, and it needs to # be the full path. # -W product.location="D:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServerNonroot3" ################################################################################ # File Permission Checking # # The installer does not check that it has sufficient file permissions to # perform the installation by default. # # Uncomment the following option to notify the installer that it should # check that it has sufficient file permissions to perform the required # install operation on each file to be installed. # # This option is not applicable for Windows. # # -OPT checkFilePermissions="true" # ############################################################################### # # AIX Non-root user limitation # # The AIX user account running the Update Installer program also must be able to # run the slibclean command; otherwise, a root user must run the slibclean command # before the Update Installer program runs. # # Uncomment the following option to notify the installer that a root user has run # the slibclean command before the Update Installer program runs. # #-OPT rootUserHasRunSlibcleanCommandSuccessfully="true" ################################################################################ # # Do not edit these values. # -W update.type="uninstall"
