Running the uninstallsfrac Utility

Run the script from any node in the cluster. Prior to invoking the uninstallsfrac script, you must take all service groups offline and shut down VCS.

The example in this procedure involves removing SFRAC from the saturn node.

1. As root user, start the uninstallation:
     # cd /opt/VRTS/install
     # ./uninstallsfrac
2. Decline to uninstall SFRAC from all systems:
     VCS configuration files exist on this system with the following
     information:
           Cluster Name: rac_cluster1
           Cluster ID Number: 7
           Systems: galaxy nebula saturn
           Service Groups: cvm oradb1_grp
   Do you want to uninstall SFRAC from these systems? [y,n,q] (y) n

   ---

    Caution    Be sure to answer "n". Otherwise, the utility begins the process of uninstalling SFRAC from all systems.

   ---

3. Specify the name of the system on which you are uninstalling SFRAC:
     Enter the system names separated by spaces on which to uninstall
     SFRAC:saturn
4. Review the output as the script checks for packages currently installed on your system. The utility also checks for dependencies between packages to determine the packages it can safely uninstall and in which order:
     Checking SFRAC packages installed on galaxy:
       Checking VRTSvxmsa package ........... version 4.1 installed
       Checking VRTSvxmsa dependencies ............ no dependencies
       Checking VRTSvcsvr package ........... version 4.1 installed
       Checking VRTSvcsvr dependencies ............ no dependencies
       Checking VRTSvcsvp package ........... version 4.1 installed
       Checking VRTSvcsvp dependencies ............ no dependencies
       .
       .
       Checking VRTSgab package ............. version 4.1 installed
       Checking VRTSgab dependencies .... VRTSdbac VRTSglm VRTSgms
        VRTSvcs VRTSvcsag VRTSvcsmg VRTSvxfen
       Checking VRTSllt package ............. version 4.1 installed
       Checking VRTSllt dependencies ... VRTSdbac VRTSgab VRTSglm
        VRTSgms VRTSvxfen
       .
5. Confirm to uninstall SFRAC:
    uninstallsfrac is now ready to uninstall SFRAC packages.
    All SFRAC processes that are currently running will be stopped.
   
    Are you sure you want to uninstall SFRAC packages? [y,n,q] (y) 
6. Review the output as the script stops processes and drivers running on each node:
     Stopping SFRAC processes on galaxy:
       Checking VRTSweb process ....................... not running
       Checking had process ............................... running
       Stopping had .......................................... Done
       Checking hashadow process ...................... not running
       Checking CmdServer process ......................... running
       Killing CmdServer ..................................... Done
       Checking notifier process ...................... not running
       Checking vcsmm driver .................. vcsmm module loaded
       Stopping vcsmm driver ................................. Done
       .
       .
7. After the script uninstalls the packages, it describes the location of the summary and log files.
    Uninstallation of Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC has completed
    successfully.
   
    The uninstallation summary is saved at:
   
           /opt/VRTS/install/logs/uninstallsfracdate_time.summary
   
    The uninstallsfrac log is saved at:
   
           /opt/VRTS/install/logs/uninstallsfracdate_time.log
