23.0 Uninstalling Orchestration Component Patterns from a SLES Server

This section provides information about uninstalling Cloud Manager from your data center.

There is no supported wizard or self-contained uninstall tool to remove the Cloud Manager Orchestration Server from your Linux machines, nor is the uninstall feature in YaST2 supported, However, if you no longer want to use the server on a given machine, you can use a Linux package management tool to perform the uninstall. There are a variety of tools you can use to perform the uninstall:

  • Use the zypper command line tool to remove the server packages on SLES machines.

    zypper remove <RPM_Package>

  • Use the YaST setup and configuration tool on SLES machines to select and remove the software packages.

  • Use the rpm -qa command to look for installed RPM files and the rpm -e command to manually remove one or more of them.

To remove the patterns:

  1. Shut down all Cloud Manager Orchestration components running anywhere on the grid, including the Orchestration Agent, the Orchestration Server, the Cloud Manager Monitoring Server, and the Cloud Manager Monitoring Agent.

  2. Use a package management tool to uninstall the Orchestration Server RPM files:
