Chapter 10. Uninstalling JBoss ON
Because both the JBoss Operations Network server and agent are extracted JAR files, removing a server or agent ultimately consists of simply deleting those files.
10.1. Uninstalling an Agent
10.1.1. Removing an Agent on Linux (JAR)
- Remove the platform entry from the JBoss ON server inventory.
Important
If the agent was configured, but the platform was never imported into the inventory, then you must import the platform from the discovery queue first, and then delete the platform. The discovery queue is a halfway point in the inventory. Even if the agent is removed, the platform could still linger in the discovery queue as a ghost entry. - Stop the agent.
- Delete the agent's installation directory.
10.1.2. Removing an Agent RPM
- Remove the platform entry from the JBoss ON server inventory.
