Removing the DS CLI from your system using graphical mode

Use the graphical mode to remove the DS CLI from your system when the DS CLI is installed on a Windows, Novell, or UNIX system.

Notes:

The following procedure applies to the removal of only the DS CLI application. This procedure cannot be used to remove other versions of the CLI.
If you do not want to create a new profile when you reinstall the CLI, select to not delete the DS CLI profile as you complete this task.

You use the Add/Remove Programs facility of the Windows operating system to remove the DS CLI from your system. When you have processed the uninstall steps, restart your system to complete the uninstall. Perform the following steps to remove the DS CLI using the graphical mode.

Navigate to the Windows Control Panel and open the Add/Remove program facility.
Scroll the list of currently installed programs and click the listing for IBM System Storage™ DS Command-Line Interface.
Click the Change/Remove button and the Welcome window for the Uninstaller is displayed.
Click Next to continue or click Cancel to exit the removal process. When you click Next, the Confirmation window is displayed that shows the directory from which the DS CLI program is removed.
Click Remove to continue or Cancel to stop the removal and exit the uninstall process. Click Back to return to the previous window. When you click Remove, the Uninstallation Progress window is displayed. When the uninstall process is finished, the Finish window is displayed, which contains a statement about the success or failure of the uninstall process. Click Finish to close.

If the uninstall program does not remove some information from your system, the Restart window is displayed. You must restart so that previously locked files are released and automatically deleted.
Close the Add/Remove Programs window.
Restart your system, if required (now or later), to complete the removal process.
