3 OSSREMOV Utility
The OSSREMOV utility removes the components of an OSS subsystem; that is, it
removes the server processes and filesets that the OSS Monitor ($ZPMON) manages.
OSSREMOV does not remove the INITIAL-DIRECTORY settings for the users, which
the security manager ($ZSMP) manages.
Usage Considerations:
HP recommends that you log on with the super ID to run OSSREMOV; otherwise,
you must first ensure that the NULL, OSMP, and OSSMON objects have the
correct security settings (see the Open System Services Management and
Operations Guide).
OSSREMOV is on the installation subvolume ZOSSINS. You must run
OSSREMOV from ZOSSINS.
OSSREMOV no longer expects the SPI definition files to be installed on $SYSTEM
if the EASYSETUP^EMSVOL param is used (see SPI Definition Files on
page 1-6).
Status and Error Messages
The status messages that OSSREMOV displays are described in Appendix B, OSS
EasySetup Status Messages.
The error messages that OSSREMOV displays are described in Appendix C, OSS
EasySetup Error Messages.
Running OSSREMOV
To use OSSREMOV:
1. Find any executing OSS processes by entering this command at the OSS shell
prompt:
ps -ea
If any OSS processes are executing, stop them. (For instructions, see the Open
System Services Management and Operations Guide.)
Note. OSSREMOV requires the Safeguard product (see Required Software on page 1-5).
Note. The examples in this procedure show the prompts that OSSREMOV displays but not the
status messages. Example 3-1
on page 3-4 shows an OSSREMOV session with status
messages.
