HP File System Extender (FSE) Uninstalling FSE software, Uninstalling the FSE Management Console

7 Uninstalling FSE software

If you want to remove the FSE software from a system that is part of your FSE implementation, you need to uninstall all FSE components.

NOTE: In a distributed FSE system the sequence of uninstalling from different hosts that are part of the FSE system matters. If external FSE clients are part of your FSE system, you need to uninstall the FSE software from the external clients before uninstalling the consolidated FSE system or FSE server.

During FSE uninstallation, you can uninstall only the FSE Management Console components or you can completely remove the FSE software from a particular system. In the latter case, if the FSE Management Console components are installed on a system that also hosts basic FSE software, you must uninstall them before uninstalling basic FSE software.
