- Executor: Superuser
Uninstall HiRDB only if you will no longer use HiRDB on the applicable server machine. Otherwise, you should not uninstall HiRDB.
- Notes about uninstalling HiRDB
- Before you uninstall HiRDB, make sure that all commands, utilities, applications, HiRDB Datareplicator, and HiRDB Dataextractor have stopped. If any of these programs is running, deletion of executable files and shared libraries may fail.
The procedure for uninstalling HiRDB is described below. In the case of a HiRDB/Parallel Server, you must uninstall HiRDB from all server machines that constitute the HiRDB/Parallel Server.
- To uninstall HiRDB:
- Before uninstalling HiRDB, remove the HiRDB's registration from the OS. To check the status of a unit whose HiRDB registration is to be removed from the OS, execute the pdls -d ust command at the corresponding unit.
- If the termination status is 0 or 4 (unit status is ONLINE, STARTING, or STOPPING):
The HiRDB's registration cannot be removed from the OS. Check the status to make sure that HiRDB is not running or engaged in start or termination processing. If HiRDB is running, use the pdstop command to terminate it normally. If HiRDB start or termination processing is underway, re-execute the pdls -d ust command after the processing has terminated.
- If the termination status is 8 (unit status is PAUSE)
Restart of the process service has been cancelled due to an error. To remove the HiRDB's registration from the OS in this status, proceed to the next step.
To not remove the HiRDB's registration, check the KFPS00715-E message and the message that has been output to the syslog file before this message, eliminate the cause of the error, execute the pdrpause command, and then restart the unit.
- If the termination status is 12 (unit status is STOP)
HiRDB has stopped. Remove its registration from the OS.
- If the termination status is 16 (unit status is STOP)
There is no need to remove the HiRDB's registration from the OS.
- Use the pdsetup -d command to remove the HiRDB from the OS.
If the termination status of the pdsetup -d command is not 0, an error may have occurred. See the message output to the syslog file, eliminate the cause of the error, and then re-execute the removal of HiRDB registration from OS again.
- Uninstall HiRDB.
Use the Hitachi Program Product Installer to uninstall HiRDB from each server machine.
Check the results in the Hitachi Program Product Installer window. The following table describes the possible causes of uninstallation errors and the actions to be taken:
Possible cause | Action |

A command, utility, HiRDB Datareplicator, or HiRDB Dataextractor is running. | Terminate the command, utility, HiRDB Datareplicator, or HiRDB Dataextractor that is running, and then re-execute uninstallation. |
Other (such as an error) | See the message output to the syslog file, eliminate the cause of the error, and then re-execute uninstallation. |
