HP Insight Control for Linux 6.1 Release Notes

2.14.1 Possible hang might occur while running the uninstall.sh script
The uninstall.sh script may hang while trying to remove the SIM RPMs as the result of the
mxinitconfig -r command hanging; SIM must be completely stopped before Insight Control
for Linux can remove the RPMs.
The output of the uninstall.sh script resembles the following:
# uninstall.sh
...
Uninstalling HP Systems Insight Manager
...
Stopping HP SIM
Stopping hpsmdb
Corrective action: Follow this procedure:
1. On the CMS, run the ps command to find the process ID of the hung mxinitconfig -r
process.
# ps -ef | grep mxinitconfig
root 8626 8600 0 07:47 pts/0 00:00:02 /opt/mx/bin/mxinitconfig -r
root 29156 17502 0 08:17 pts/1 00:00:00 grep mxinitconfig
2. Remove that process with the kill command.
# kill -9 8626
Removing the process allows the uninstall.sh script to continue.
