Netbackup 7.6.0.4 and pbx removal

Hi, 

I need to remove NBU from my Ubuntu server.

I saw this post but i wonder if there has none-manually\better way to do it.

also i didn't find how to remove the vxpbx_exchange service. How should i do it?

Thanks

 

edit:

I have an "install" script installation that installing the PBX and NBU Services - it is extracting the necessery packages from tar.gz files.

    The TechNote you found is for very old NBU version(s).

    If you want to remove NBU Client Software, you need to look in the Installation Guide for the particular NBU version.

    For NBU 7.6: NetBackup Installation Guide  

    Chapter 10: Removing NetBackup client software

    Removing NetBackup server software in chapter 9.

    pbx should be a Debian package you can remove with dkp. You may get away removing rest of the client by just removing /usr/openv, but we need to know the Netbackup version:

    Please do a :

    # more /usr/openv/netbackup/version

    The client installer can and do today packages on RedHat and SuSe. 

    From a RedHat server :

    # rpm -qa | grep SYMC
    SYMCnbjava-7.7.0.0-0
    SYMCnetbp-7.7.0.0-0
    SYMCpddea-9.0.0.0-0
    SYMCnbclt-7.7.0.0-0
    SYMCpddes-9.0.0.0-0
    SYMCnbjre-7.7.0.0-0

    All installed by :

    drwxr-xr-x 2 root bin  4096 May  1 02:16 Doc
    -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 48544 May  1 02:16 install
    -r--r--r-- 1 root bin 49523 May  1 02:16 LICENSE

    The installation guide has a manually Debian PBX removal - 

    /opt/VRTSpbx/bin/vxpbx_exchanged stop

    rm -rf /opt/VRTSpbx

    rm -rf /etc/vx/VxICS

     

    Ubuntu does not support rpm installation packages unless some changes has been made to support it on the server. Its not so simple.

    I have an "install" script installation that installing the PBX and NBU Services - it is extracting the necessery packages from tar.gz files.

    The NBU version is 7.6.0.4.

    Yes it does.

    Since its a current version of Netbackup you should refer to Mariannes link to the 7.6 Installation Guide (first post). Navigate to page 142 "Removing NetBackup from UNIX/Linux clients"
