Remove PowerFlex using the PowerFlex Installer

You can remove PowerFlex using the PowerFlex Installer.

About this task

All PowerFlex components in the system that are being accessed are removed. This information is attained from the LIA that is installed on every node.

Steps

  1. Log in to the PowerFlex Installer:
    1. Point your browser to this URL: https://<GW_Server_IP>
      where <GW_Server_IP> is the IP address of the server where you installed the PowerFlex Gateway package.
    2. Accept the certificate warning; alternatively, install your own certificate for the Tomcat server.
    3. Enter the default user name, admin, and the password defined when the PowerFlex Gateway was prepared, and then click Login.
  2. From the PowerFlex Installer, select the Maintain tab.
  3. In the Maintenance operation screen, type the authentication credentials, then click Retrieve system topology.
    The system topology is displayed.
  4. Click the Show Uninstall button link, and confirm enabling this option.
    The uninstall operation may take some time, depending on your system topology. This operation cannot be rolled back.
  5. Click Uninstall.
    A confirmation dialog is displayed.
    NOTE: Uninstalling an SDC component requires a machine restart. If you are uninstalling SDC components on Windows servers, select to enable automatic restart (on those servers only). Alternatively, you can manually restart these servers after removing the SDC.

    On Linux servers, if the kernel module is busy, perform a manual restart.

  6. Enter the MDM password, select to reboot servers (optional), and click Uninstall.
  7. To monitor the uninstallation progress, click Monitor.
  8. When the uninstallation is complete, click Mark operation completed.
