Co-installation of Unix Remote Agents with Additional CA Products

In CA Identity Manager r12.5 SP15, the UNIX Remote Agents (with the exception of TRU64 platforms) are now installed so that the shared software components are tracked by the installer software. This allows co-installation with additional CA products such as CA ITCM.

However, when an earlier version of the UNIX Remote Agent is upgraded, for example, if you are upgrading from CA Identity Manager r12.5 SP9 to CA Identity Manager r12.5 SP15, the new tracking method will not update the reference counts of those packages which the agent is depending on. In such case, if you wish to uninstall the product after this upgrade, please use the de-install file: <install-dir>/scripts/uninstall-force.sh

Note: Make sure that the uninstall-force.sh is not used on hosts that have additional CA software installed. These products may depend on those same software packages which this script removes.
