Uninstalling WebSphere Business Integration Server Express
and Express Plus using the GUI
IBM provides an uninstallation GUI program
that lets you remove your entire WebSphere Business Integration
Server Express or Express Plus installation, or select specific
components for removal. The uninstaller program does not uninstall
the software prerequisites. You have to do this manually, according
to the instructions provided with the specific prerequisite.
Note:
Before you uninstall, make sure
that none of the processes associated with InterChange Server Express
are running. If they are, stop them. One way to accomplish this
is to open Task manager and see if any of these processes are running.
If they are, stop them. Be careful not to stop any processes associated
with other applications.
To run the uninstallation GUI, do the following:
- Select Start > Settings > Control Panel.
- Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
- Scroll down and select IBM WebSphere Business Integration Server Express v4.4 or IBM WebSphere Business Integration Server Express Plus v4.4 (depending
on which product is installed), and select the Change/Remove button.
Note:
The estimate of disk space that will become free
after uninstallation, which is shown in the Add/Remove Programs tool,
can be incorrect if multiple products are installed in the same
folder.
The uninstallation welcome screen appears.
- On the uninstallation welcome screen, select Next.
The uninstallation feature screen appears. The installed components
appear with checks next to them.
- On the uninstallation feature screen, leave any components selected
that you want to be removed and select Next.
The pre-uninstallation summary screen appears.
-
On the pre-uninstallation summary screen,
select Next to confirm your selections. The
uninstaller removes the selected components.
The post-uninstallation finish screen appears.
- On the post-uninstallation finish screen, select Finish to
exit the uninstallation GUI.
Note:
You might need to manually delete the C:\IBM\WebSphereServer directory.
A silent uninstallation is also available. See Appendix. Silently installing and uninstalling for instructions on performing
a silent uninstallation.
