Removing MultiNet for OpenVMS

You can use the de-installation command procedure to remove the MultiNet for OpenVMS software. The procedure removes all MultiNet files from disk and all MultiNet commands from the DCLTABLES.EXE file. Before executing the procedure:

1 Use the LICENSE DISABLE or DELETE commands, or the VMSLICENSE command procedure to remove any registered MultiNet PAKs (Product Authorization Keys). If you are running MultiNet on a system running VAX/VMS V5.0 through V5.4, use the MULTINET:PAK-DELETE.COM procedure to delete the relevant PAKs. Refer to the Hewlett-Packard VMS License Management Utility Manual for more information about PAKs.

2 Remove the reference to START_MULTINET.COM from your system startup command procedure.

3 Remove system parameter changes in MODPARAMS.DAT made as part of the installation; invoke the AUTOGEN utility to set the parameters back to their pre-installation values. Refer to the Hewlett-Packard manual Guide to Maintaining a VMS System for descriptions of MODPARAMS.DAT and AUTOGEN parameters.

4 Reboot your system (or systems, if you installed MultiNet on more than one node in a VMScluster environment).

To execute the MultiNet de-installation procedure, type this command if MultiNet is still running:

$ @MULTINET:REMOVE

Otherwise, for V4.n-style installations, type:

$ @device:[directory.node.SYSCOMMON.MULTINET]REMOVE

device, directory, and node are those you specified during Step 8 of the installation procedure.

Or, for installations upgraded from MultiNet V3.n:

$ @target_volume:[SYSn.SYSCOMMON.MULTINET]REMOVE
