NetBackup™ Snapshot Manager Install and Upgrade Guide

To uninstall Snapshot Manager

1. Ensure that you have uninstalled the Snapshot Manager agents from all the hosts that are part of the Snapshot Manager configuration.

   See Removing the Snapshot Manager agents.

2. Verify that there are no protection policy snapshots or other operations in progress, and then uninstall Snapshot Manager by running the following command on the host:

   (For Docker)

   # sudo docker run -it --rm -u 0 
   -v /full_path_to_volume:/full_path_to_volume 
   -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
   veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<version> uninstall

   (For Podman)

   # sudo podman run -it --rm -u 0 
   -v /full_path_to_volume:/full_path_to_volume 
   -v /var/run/podman.sock:/var/run/podman.sock
   veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<version> uninstall

   Replace the following parameters as per your environment:

   Parameter	Description
   <version>	Represents the Snapshot Manager product version that is installed on the host.
   <full_path_to_volume>	Represents the path to the Snapshot Manager data volume, which typically is /cloudpoint.

   For example, if the product version is 10.1.0.0.1005, the command syntax for docker is as follows:

   # sudo docker run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock veritas/flexsnap-deploy:10.1.0.0.1005 uninstall

   If using a proxy server, then using the examples provided in the table earlier, the command syntax for docker is as follows:

   # sudo docker run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -e VX_HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy.mycompany.com:8080/" -e VX_HTTPS_PROXY="http://proxy.mycompany.com:8080/" -e VX_NO_PROXY="localhost,mycompany.com,192.168.0.10:80" -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock veritas/flexsnap-deploy:10.1.0.0.1005 uninstall

   Note:

   This is a single command. Ensure that you enter the command without any line breaks.

   The installer begins to unload the relevant Snapshot Manager container packages from the host. Messages similar to the following indicate the progress status:

3. Confirm that the Snapshot Manager containers are removed.

   Use the following docker command:

   (For Docker) # sudo docker ps -a

   (For Podman) # sudo podman ps -a

4. If desired, remove the Snapshot Manager container images from the host.

   Use the following docker command to view the docker images that are loaded on the host:

   • (For Docker) # sudo docker images -a

   • (For Podman) # sudo podman images -a

   Use the following respective commands to remove the Snapshot Manager container images from the host:

   • (For Docker) # sudo docker rmi <image ID>

   • (For Podman) # sudo podman rmi <image ID>

5. This completes the Snapshot Manager uninstallation on the host.

   Possible next step is to re-deploy Snapshot Manager.
