The following preparation work must be done before starting the uninstallation of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent.
If you are planning to use the backup management list afterwards, back up the backup management list using swstresback command before starting the uninstallation of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent.
For details on the command, refer to "swstresback (Resource backup command)" in the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Operation Guide" for the operating system of the Managed Server (Storage Server).
Before starting the uninstallation of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent from server nodes on which a cluster environment is built, delete the environment of all Managed Server transactions (Storage Server transactions) created on these server nodes.
For detailed instructions, refer to "Deletion of Cluster Environment for Managed Server Transactions" in the "ETERNUS SF Cluster Environment Setup Guide".
Before starting the uninstallation of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent from environments in which backup operation was implemented for Exchange Server databases, perform the tasks described under "Uninstallation" in "Backup and Restore of Exchange Server Databases" in the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Operation Guide".
The server from which the AdvancedCopy Manager's agent is uninstalled must be removed from the control of Management Server (Storage Management Server).
There are two methods for this task:
Using the Web Console
Executing the stgxfwcmdelsrv command on the Management Server
For details on the command, refer to "stgxfwcmdelsrv (Server information deletion command)" in the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Operation Guide" for the operating system of the Management Server.
If AdvancedCopy Manager's agent is uninstalled, AdvancedCopy Manager's pre-processing and post-processing scripts (shell scripts) used in backup/restore and replication will also be deleted.
If there is a possibility that any customized scripts are used again, back up these scripts.
