After you install Feature Pack for SCA Version 1.0.0 and
install a Feature Pack for SCA refresh pack, you can use the IBM Update
Installer to uninstall the maintenance package. You can also use the
Update Installer to uninstall an interim fix or test fix.
Before you begin
Before starting this maintenance package uninstallation,
do the following:
- Ensure that you have a WebSphere® Application Server Version 7.0 installation
with the Feature Pack for SCA Version 1.0.0 and a refresh pack installed.
For the Feature Pack for SCA Version
1.0.1 refresh pack, you installed the pak file 1.0_WS_SCA_RP000000.1.pak.
- If you do not have a recent installation of the Update Installer,
download and install the IBM Update Installer Version 7.0.0.3 or later
from the IBM support site. For more information, see the topic Installing
the Update Installer.
Use the Update Installer
program from the same user ID that installed the product that you
are updating. Otherwise, the file ownership mismatches might require
correction by the root user. See Using root or non-root when installing with the Update Installer for
more information.
About this task
The Procedure in this topic describes how to uninstall
maintenance using the graphical user interface.
You can also
uninstall maintenance silently by running the
