18 Installing and Uninstalling the OpenManage Connection

Repair

If you want to repair any of the corrupted or missing files or missing registry

entries, run the Repair option to restore your application.

NOTE: If Dell agents’ configurations are modified or the OpenManage Connection

is repaired, the OpenManage Connection component will create duplicate records

with default values. Make sure duplicate Dell records are deleted after repair.

Uninstalling the OpenManage Connection in a

Distributed Environment

While uninstalling the OpenManage Connection in a distributed

environment, perform the following steps:

Uninstall the EM component. This removes all the MRAs created during

the installation of the EM component.

Uninstall the DSM component. This removes the policy files and

.wvc

files. However, Dell agent classes and objects are not removed from the

MDB during the uninstallation of the DSM component.

Uninstall the WV component. The selected

MDB

screen displays an

option to remove the WV classes and objects. If you select the

Remove

WV classes and objects

check box, the OpenManage Connection removes

all Dell agent classes and objects from the selected MDB.

NOTE: If you uninstalled the DSM component and did not select Yes, I want to run

"resetdsm" and "awservices start" now check box, open command prompt and run

the commands;

resetdsm and awservices start.
