Uninstalling ICAgent

If ICAgent is uninstalled from a host, log collection will be affected. Exercise caution when performing this operation.

Note

Uninstalling ICAgent does not delete the installation files. You need to delete them manually if necessary.

There are a number of ways to uninstall ICAgent:

Uninstalling ICAgent on the Console

  1. Log in to the LTS console and choose Agent Management in the navigation pane on the left.

  2. Select one or more hosts where ICAgent is to be uninstalled and click Uninstall ICAgent.

  3. In the Uninstall ICAgent dialog box, click Yes.

    The uninstallation begins. This process takes about a minute.

    When the ICAgent status changes from Uninstalling to Uninstalled, the ICAgent uninstallation has completed.

    Note

    To reinstall ICAgent, wait for 5 minutes after the uninstallation completes, or the reinstalled ICAgent may be unintentionally uninstalled again.

Uninstalling ICAgent on a Host

  1. Log in to a host where ICAgent is to be uninstalled as user root.

  2. Run the following command:

    bash /opt/oss/servicemgr/ICAgent/bin/manual/uninstall.sh;

    If the message ICAgent uninstall success is displayed, the uninstallation has completed.

Remotely Uninstalling ICAgent

You can uninstall ICAgent on one host remotely from another host.

  1. On a host that has ICAgent installed, run the following command. x.x.x.x indicates the IP address of the host you wish to uninstall ICAgent from.

    bash /opt/oss/servicemgr/ICAgent/bin/remoteUninstall/remote_uninstall.sh -ip x.x.x.x

  2. Enter the password for user root for the remote host.

    Note

    • If the Expect tool has been installed on the host you are running the command from, ICAgent will be uninstalled from the remote host after the command is executed. If the Expect tool has not been installed, you will need to enter the password of user root for the remote host as prompted.

    • Ensure that user root can run SSH or SCP commands on the host where ICAgent has been installed to communicate with the remote host.

    • If the message ICAgent uninstall success is displayed, the uninstallation has completed.

Batch Uninstalling ICAgent

If ICAgent has been installed on a host and the ICAgent installation package ICProbeAgent.tar.gz is in the /opt/ICAgent/ directory of the host, you can use this method to uninstall ICAgent from multiple hosts at once.

Important

The hosts must all belong to the same Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and be on the same subnet.

Prerequisites

The IP addresses and passwords of all hosts to uninstall ICAgent have been collected, sorted in the iplist.cfg file, and uploaded to the /opt/ICAgent/ directory on the host that has ICAgent installed. Each IP address and password in the iplist.cfg file must be separated by a space, as shown in the following example:

192.168.0.109 Password (Replace the IP address and password with the actual ones)

192.168.0.39 Password (Replace the IP address and password with the actual ones)

Note

  • The iplist.cfg file contains sensitive information. You are advised to clear it after using it.

  • If all hosts share a password, list only IP addresses in the iplist.cfg file and enter the password manually during execution. If one of the hosts uses a different password, type the password behind its IP address.

Procedure

  1. Run the following command on the host that has ICAgent installed:

    bash /opt/oss/servicemgr/ICAgent/bin/remoteUninstall/remote_uninstall.sh -batchModeConfig /opt/ICAgent/iplist.cfg

    Enter the default password for user root of the hosts to uninstall ICAgent. If the passwords of all hosts have been configured in the iplist.cfg file, press Enter to skip this step.

    batch uninstall begin
Please input default passwd:
send cmd to 192.168.0.109
send cmd to 192.168.0.39
2 tasks running, please wait...
End of uninstall agent: 192.168.0.109
End of uninstall agent: 192.168.0.39
All hosts uninstall icagent finish.

    If the message All hosts uninstall icagent finish. is displayed, the batch uninstallation has completed.

  2. Choose Agent Management in the LTS navigation pane to view the ICAgent status of the host.
