Uninstalling the server software

When you want to install a new version of server software or to reinstall when an installation fails, you can uninstall the server software and its components from the Red Hat OpenShift platform.

Before you begin

You must have completed the following tasks:
  • Installed Rational® Test Automation Server software.

  • Closed Rational® Test Automation Server, any open web browsers, and all other applications that are enabled by Rational® Test Automation Server.

Procedure

  1. Open and log in to the terminal.
  2. Run the following command to stop the workload that is running:
    oc delete all,cm,secret -lexecution-marker -n test-system
  3. Run the following command to uninstall the server software:
    helm uninstall {my-rtas} -n test-system
    The PersistentVolumeClaims and PersistentVolumes that were created during the installation are not deleted automatically. If you reinstall the server software, the user data is reused unless you specifically delete those volumes.
    Note: You must substitute {my-rtas} with the release name of your choice.
  4. Optional: Run the following command to delete everything including user data contained in PersistentVolumeClaims and PersistentVolumes:
    oc delete project test-system

Results

You have uninstalled the server software from the Red Hat OpenShift platform.
