Uninstalling Stratus Cloud Workload Services

Uninstall Stratus Cloud Workload Services if the initial installation fails and you need to start over.

Note: To uninstall Workload Services, you must use the installation script for the currently installed version of the software and not the installation script from another build or version. If you followed the installation procedure, the current script is in the /opt/Release directory of the Stratus appliance.

To uninstall Workload Services:

  1. Log on to the Stratus appliance as the cloud-user and execute the su command to become the root user (or be prepared to use sudo to run commands as root).
  2. In the Stratus appliance, switch to the directory where the existing clouds installation script is located, typically the /opt/Release directory:

    # cd /opt/Release

  3. Run the installation script and specify the uninstall option:

    # ./clouds-n.n.n.n.n.sh uninstall

  4. If applicable, correct any issues that were reported during the initial installation and reinstall the software as described in Installing Stratus Cloud Workload Services.
