6.4 Uninstalling the ZENworks Agent

ZENworks includes a uninstall program (zlm-uninstall) to remove the ZENworks Agent from a
device. If for some reason the uninstall program is unable to remove the ZENworks Agent, you can
manually uninstall the agent. The following sections provide instructions to remove the software:

/opt/novell/zenworks/bin/zlm-uninstall
4 Follow the prompts.
Manually Uninstalling the ZENworks Agent
1 Use the following command to list the ZENworks package names:
rpm -qa | grep novell-zenworks
2 Remove each of the packages individually using the following command:
rpm -e | package_name
or
Use the following simple script to remove multiple packages:
for i in 'rpm -qa | grep novell-zenworks' ; do rpm -e $i ; done
Because of package dependencies, you might need to run this script multiple times to remove
all packages. You can verify that all packages have been removed by running the command in
Step 1.
3 Remove the following directories:
rm -rf /opt/novell/zenworks/
rm -rf /etc/opt/novell/zenworks/
rm -rf /var/opt/novell/zenworks/
NOTE: When you uninstall ZENworks Linux Management on SLES 10 and SLED 10 managed
devices, the core zmd packages such as zmd, rug, zen-updater, and zen-inventory are not removed
because they are also installed as a part of the distribution. Hence, when you reinstall the ZENworks
Agent on these devices, the configuration files such as zmd.conf that are associated to these
packages persist.
