The Effects of De-Installing the MCC from the System
The MCC tries to restore the system to its state before the MCC was
installed, as follows:
ƒ Removes those lines in /etc/services that were added during MCC
installation.
ƒ Archives customer-specific MCC data from /usr/ics to a temporary
directory indicated by the de-install program, including configuration,
script, system, and log data. This information may subsequently
retrieved by the customer, for example, if the MCC software is moved
to another server.
ƒ Restores /etc/sudoers to its state before MCC installation, normally
deleting it. If it differs from the file installed by the MCC, it is left
unchanged.
The de-installation process does NOT do the following:
ƒ Remove only an upgrade to an existing MCC installation. The
de-installation process returns the system to its state before the MCC
was installed, regardless of how many upgrades were made.. To
restore a previous release, remove the MCC completely, then re-install
from the relevant CD.
ƒ Remove or change login users, even if they were originally created by
the MCC.
