[Note]Note

The uninstallation procedure removes only the files that were created when installing the software. Any configuration files and host keys have to be removed manually.

Removing from AIX

To remove Tectia Server from an AIX environment, follow the instructions below:

  1. Stop Tectia Server by using the System Resource Controller (SRC) of the operating system:

    # stopsrc -s ssh-tectia-server
    
  2. Remove the installation by issuing the following command with root privileges:

    # installp -u SSHTectia.Server
    
  3. If you want to remove also the components that are common with Tectia Client, give the following command:

    # installp -u SSHTectia.Common
    

    Note that removing the common components also disables Tectia Client if it has been installed on the same host.

Removing from Linux

To remove Tectia Server from a Linux environment, follow the instructions below:

  1. Log in as root user.

  2. Stop Tectia Server.

    • Using Tectia Server control utility:

    • Or on Linux with systemd:

      # systemctl stop ssh-server-g3
    • Or on Linux without systemd:

      # /etc/init.d/ssh-server-g3 stop
  3. Remove the installation in Linux by giving the following command:

    # rpm -e ssh-tectia-server

    # dpkg -P ssh-tectia-server
  4. If you want to remove also the components that are common with Tectia Client, give the following command:

    # rpm -e ssh-tectia-common

    Note that removing the common components disables Tectia Client if it has been installed on the same host.

    Note that removing the common components disables Tectia Client, if it has been installed on the same host.

    Tectia Server needs to be uninstalled separately from each local zone, if it has been installed to all zones by installing into the global zone.

  3. If you want to remove also the components that are common with Tectia Client, give the following command:

    # pkgrm SSHG3cmmn
