Q-Logic IB0056101-00 G.02 Uninstalling Software with Rocks or Platform OCS, Downgrading RPMs

A

Software Installation Removing Software Packages

For both InfiniPath and OpenFabrics, QLogic recommends that you remove all the packages at the same time.

1.Use the script ofed_uninstall.sh to uninstall the OFED software. See the OFED Installation release notes that are part of the OFED documentation.

2.To uninstall the InfiniPath software packages on any node with the rpm command, type the following command (as root) using a bash shell:

# rpm -e --allmatches ‘rpm -qa grep qlc‘

The “qlc” is a part of all the InfiniPath package names.

Uninstalling Software with Rocks or Platform OCS

Follow the instructions for either Rocks or Platform OCS to uninstall software. See:

http://www.rocksclusters.org

Downgrading RPMs

If you want to downgrade, remove both the InfiniPath and OpenFabrics RPMs, then install the older bits. QLogic has determined that rpm flags like "--oldpackage" will not generate a correct downgrade.

NOTE:

Use the rpm method for downgrading rather than the Installer tool.
