Uninstalling the application server
Use these tasks to uninstall the BMC Network Automation application server using the interactive BMC Network Automation uninstaller. See Uninstalling silently if you want to uninstall your application server using silent mode.
Note
The BMC Network Automation uninstallation process does not delete the OS user created during installation of the application server. If you want to remove this OS user, you must do so manually by using the method appropriate to your OS.
Before you begin
Back up or move any customized files in the BCAN_DATA directory. These files can be deleted during uninstallation.
