Uninstalling Full-Server Failover

Use these instructions if you want to uninstall an existing Full-Server Failover installation. If you want

to use the product installation files to uninstall, you have to use the same installation files as the

currently installed version. If you do not have the same installation files as the currently installed

version, you will need to use the Windows Add/Remove Programs feature to uninstall the software.

If you are using the Windows Add/Remove Programs feature, confirm that you want to remove

the program and then continue with step 7.

3.

If you are using the same installation files as the currently installed version, start the installation

program using the appropriate instructions, depending on your media source.

CD—Load the CD into the local CD-ROM drive. If auto-run is enabled, the installation program

will start automatically. To manually start the program, select Start, Run and specify

<cd_drive>:\autorun.exe

.

Web download—Launch the

.exe

file that you downloaded from the web.

4.

When the installation begins, you will be given the opportunity to check for a more recent

version of the software. Select No and click Next.

5.

Review and accept the HP license agreement to continue with the installation program. Click

Next to continue.

6.

When prompted to modify, repair, or remove the the existing installation, select Remove and

click Next to continue.

continue.

You will be prompted to indicate whether or not you want to remove the security groups. Click

Yes to continue.

A message prompt informs you that the uninstall program has completed successfully. Click OK.

NOTE:

If you changed the location where the disk queue files are stored, these directories will

not be removed during the uninstallation. You will need to manually remove them.
Any files created by the Microsoft Windows Installer during the Full-Server Failover

installation can be safely deleted after an uninstall.
In some instances, you may be prompted to reboot to complete the uninstallation.
