+ Removing a Snapshot with the Deployment Utility

+

Use the deployment utility to remove a snapshot that was originally deployed by

+

the deployment utility. In addition, you can use this utility to remove user

+

informix and the Informix-Admingroup from the operating system.

+

You must have Windows administrator privileges to remove the snapshot or

+

remove the user and group objects.

+

You must have the IDSFILES.txt file in the etc subdirectory of the installation

+

path.

+

To remove a snapshot:

+

Run the ifxdeploy command with the uninstallation options on the computer

+

where the snapshot is deployed. See “ifxdeploy Command: The Deployment

+

Utility” on page 5-5for details about the command syntax.

+

The following command is an example of how to use the deployment utility to

+

remove a snapshot and to display runtime status messages:

+

ifxdeploy.exe -u C:\tmp\informix -verbose

+

The following is an example of how to uninstall a snapshot and to remove user

+

informix and the administrative group:

+

ifxdeploy.exe -u C:\tmp\informix -verbose -delifx
