Removing the APPIQ_USER Account for Sybase

IMPORTANT:

Before you remove the APPIQ_USER account for the Sybase databases on a host,

make sure no processes are running APPIQ_USER for that Sybase database. The management

server uses APPIQ_USER to obtain information about a Sybase database. (Discovery from HP SE)

One of the ways to make sure APPIQ_USER is not being used is to temporarily remove the host

running Sybase (Discovery > Topology). After you removed the APPIQ_USER account for Sybase,

discover and perform Get Details for the host if you want to continue monitoring it.

1.

Do one of the following:

# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/DBIQ/sybase/unix

where /cdrom/cdrom0 is the name of the CD-ROM drive

• To run the script on Microsoft Windows, go to the \DBIQ\sybase\win directory on the

CD-ROM.

IMPORTANT:

You must complete the following steps.

2.

Verify you have the password to the SA user account.
You are prompted for the password for this user account when you run the script.

3.

Run the UninstallSybaseAct.bat script on Microsoft Windows or UninstallSybaseAct.sh script on

the UNIX operating system on the computer with the Sybase database.

4.

Type the name of the Sybase server.
