Figure 8.53 Uninstallation task flow
On the Exchange server, check the copy status using the VSSHP "Backup status lookup command (stxvquery). If any copy process is still executing, stop it using the VSSHP "Backup control command (stxvcopy)" or the VSSHP "Batch stop command (stxvstopall)" command.
Delete the source and replica volumes that have been set up.
Refer to "swsrpdelvol (Replica volume information deletion command)" for information on how to delete the source and replica volumes.
Alternatively, if the source or replica volume will no longer be used, initialize the disk. Refer to "8.2.6.4 Initializing a disk" for the procedure.
Delete the Storage Server to be uninstalled from the control of AdvancedCopy Manager.
Refer to "Delete the Registration of a Storage Server" in the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager GUI User's Guide" for information on how to delete the Storage Server from the GUI client.
For information on how to delete the Storage Server with a command, refer to "stgxfwcmdelsrv (Server information deletion command)".
If the Exchange Server has a cluster configuration, delete the Storage Server transactions and the Storage Server management transactions from the Exchange Server.
Refer to the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Operator's Guide for cluster environment" for more information about canceling cluster settings.
If VSSHP will no longer be used, refer to "VSSHP Uninstallation" in the "ETERNUS VSS Hardware Provider User's Guide" and uninstall the VSSHP on both the Exchange server and the backup server.
Note
Do not uninstall VSSHP if there are other storage groups on the backup or Exchange servers where operations may use this hardware provider registration.
Refer to the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Installation Guide" to delete AdvancedCopy Manager.
