8.1 Using the Uninstallation Wizard

Ensure that the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables point to Java before you launch the integrated uninstaller.

To uninstall the Identity Manager components:

  1. Execute the uninstallation by using the correct program for your platform:

    • Linux: ./Uninstall_Identity_Manager

      The binary file is located by default in the /root/idm/Uninstall_Identity_Manager directory.

    • Windows: Uninstall_Identity Manager Components.exe

      The uninstaller is located by default in the C:/Program Files/NetIQ/Identity Manager directory. Alternatively, click Add/Remove programs to uninstall the Identity Manager components.

      NOTE:The Identity Vault uninstallation does not remove all the files after it is uninstalled. For more information, see the eDirectory uninstallation documentation.

  2. Select the check box for each component that you want to uninstall, then click Next.

  3. Specify the credentials for each of these components in LDAP DN format, then click Next.

    The uninstaller needs the credentials to deconfigure the components before uninstalling.

  4. Review the summary for uninstalling the components, then click Uninstall.

    If you need to change any of your components, click Previous, and make those changes.

  5. Review the Uninstall Complete Summary page that shows the list of the components that were successfully uninstalled, then click Done to complete the uninstallation process.
