Manually uninstalling on a Linux system

This procedure uninstalls a WebSphere Application Server product from a Linux system. After running the uninstaller program, manual steps remove log files and registry entries that can prevent you from reinstalling the product into the original directory. If you are not planning to reinstall, do not uninstall manually.

Before you begin

Why and when to perform this task

Identifier Directory Actual location
app_server_root /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer  
profile_root /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles  
plugins_root /opt/IBM/WebSphere/Plugins  

Step for this task

Edit the vpd.properties file.

Do not delete or rename the vpd.properties file because the InstallShield for MultiPlatforms (ISMP) program uses it for other products that it installs. If the WebSphere Application Server product that you are uninstalling is the only product with entries in the vpd.properties file, you can delete this file.
