Hi Dave,

The official de-install for a working NetView 5.x installation is simply to
right-click on the NetViewServer icon in the Tivoli desktop and select
Maintain->Remove TME 10 NetView.

To manually de-install, which we usually do only to clean up after a partial,
failed installation is either to run the /MUSTSEE/cleanup script on the NetView
5.1.1+ CD or do the following steps:

Depending on why and how soon the install failed, some of these steps may not be
 possible or the files may not exist. This is normal.

1. Deinstall NetView again from the command line:
   $/usr/lpp/nv6000/remove_product/nv6000.base.obj.deinstal
   $/usr/lpp/nv6000/remove_product/nv6000.features.obj.deinstal
   (make sure to execute in listed order.)
2. Remove  the  installation  flag  files  in  the  Tivoli
   installed directories with the following command:
    $ rm -f $BINDIR/.installed/NVS*
    $ rm -f $DBDIR/.installed/NVS*
3. Remove the msg_file flag file with the following commands:
    $ cd $BINDIR/../../msg_cat/
    $ rm -f NVS*
4. FOR NON-AIX SYSTEMS ONLY:
    $ rm /usr/lib/objrepos
    $ rm /etc/objrepos
5. Remove the netview command in /usr/bin
    $ rm -f /usr/bin/netview
6. Finally, remove /usr/OV
    $ rm -rf /usr/OV
7. Reinstall.

I am going to a disaster recovery site and am going to build netview and
break it down a number of times while I'm there.   Does anyone have the
"official de-install instructions" to de-install the product??
