OpenManage systems management software on managed systems or

management stations running Windows. For these cases, you can use the

package GUIDs to uninstall the product.

Performing an Unattended Uninstallation of Managed System Software

The Dell OpenManage installer features an unattended uninstallation

procedure. Unattended uninstallation enables you simultaneously to

uninstall managed systems software from multiple systems. The unattended

uninstallation package is distributed to the remote systems using a software

distribution tool from an ISV. When the package is distributed, the

uninstallation script executes to uninstall the software.
