6. Uninstall MxFS-Linux 3.1.x from the server. Run the following

commands. (When you uninstall MxFS-Linux, you may see an error

message stating that a failure occurred. You can ignore this message;

the uninstall was successful.)

# rpm -e mxfs

# rpm -e mxfs-sles9-support

# rpm -e mxfs-patches

7. If the Matrix Server Support RPM is installed, uninstall it:

# rpm -e pmxs-sles9-support

8. Uninstall any Matrix Server patches installed on the server:

# rpm -e pmxs-patch

9. Uninstall Matrix Server 3.1.x from the server. This step does not

remove your existing matrix configuration or log files. The matrix

software must be uninstalled from a location outside of the matrix

directory structure (/opt/polyserve).

Run this command on the server:

# rpm -e pmxs

The following message then appears:

Stopping PolyServe Matrix Server

This server needs to be rebooted before the product removal

can proceed.

/etc/init.d/pmxs has been moved to /etc/init.d/Pmxs to avoid

PolyServe Matrix Server from starting automatically on boot.

error: %preun(pmxs-<ver>-release) scriptlet failed, exit status 1

Reboot the server and run the rpm -e command again. Matrix Server

will now be uninstalled.

NOTE: When the uninstall is complete, you will see a message listing

files and directories that could not be removed. Do not

manually remove any of these files.

10. Uninstall the Management Console:

# rpm -e mxconsole
