Uninstall the SiteMinder Agent from UNIX

Before you uninstall, we recommend that you make copies of SiteMinder Agent configuration settings to have as a backup.

To uninstall the SiteMinder Agent from UNIX

  1. Open the WebLogic Server Administration Console
  2. Remove configured SiteMinder Agent Identity Asserter, Authentication Provider and Authorization Provider modules (as applicable):
    1. In the navigation frame on the left of the console, click the Security Realms node in the Domain Structure list.
    2. Click on the name of the realm you are configuring (for example, myrealm).
    3. Click the Providers tab.
    4. Click the tab for the type of provider that you are removing.
    5. For example, click the Authentication tab to remove the SiteMinder Identity Asserter.
    6. Select the SiteMinder provider from the list and click Delete.
    7. Click Yes to confirm the deletion.
  3. Replace the SiteMinder Adjudication Provider (if configured):
    1. In the navigation frame on the left of the console, click the Security Realms node in the Domain Structure list.
    2. Click on the name of the realm you are configuring (for example, myrealm).
    3. Click the Providers tab.
    4. Click the Adjudication tab.
    5. Select the SiteMinder Adjudication provider from the list and click Replace. The Create a New Adjudication Provider page opens.
    6. Specify a name for the new Adjudication Provider in the Name field. For example, AdjudicationProvider.
    7. Select a replacement Adjudication Provider from the Type drop-down list.
    8. Click OK to save the new Adjudication Provider.

    Important! Verify that there are other providers to assume the responsibility of the provider that you are removing before you restart the WebLogic Server.

  4. Stop the WebLogic Server.

    Note: If you try to uninstall the SiteMinder Agent while WebLogic is still running, the SiteMinder Agent might not be fully uninstalled.

    Verify that the PATH variable is set to the location of your JVM.

  5. Open a UNIX shell and navigate to ASA_HOME/asa-wls-uninstall.
  6. Enter one of the following commands and press Enter to start the uninstall:

    GUI mode

    java -jar uninstaller.jar
    

    Console mode

    java -jar uninstaller.jar -i console
    

    The uninstall program removes the SiteMinder Agent files.

  7. Remove the ASA_HOME directory (for example, smwlsasa) that the installation created:
    1. Navigate to the directory one level above where the SiteMinder Agent is installed. For example:

      /opt

    2. Enter the following command and press Enter:
      	rm -rf ASA_HOME
