Uninstall of Altair SLC Hub

Altair SLC Hub can be uninstalled from the Add or Remove Programs App in Windows.

Note

Before starting the uninstall, the Altair SLC Hub should be stopped.

Deactivate all Deployment API endpoints by browsing to Deployment Services > Deployment in Altair SLC Hub portal, from here select all Deployment API endpoints and click on Deactivate selected, make sure to do this for all pages and in all Namespaces.

Deactivate all Published Libraries by browsing to Enterprise > Manage Published Libraries in Altair SLC Hub portal, from here select all Published Libraries and click on Deactivate selected, make sure to do this for all pages and in all Namespaces.

Next, ensure that all Altair SLC Hub services have been stopped using the hubctl command:

hubctl service stop

Failure to stop the services before uninstall can result in a reboot being required due to files being in use at uninstall time.

Verify the services have stopped running using the following hubctl command:

hubctl service status

All services should be in the Inactive state.

Only the files created by the installer are removed. In particular, any custom configuration files that may have been created in the [etc directory] will not be removed. The "var directory" where Altair SLC Hub writes any data files will not be removed. This allows a version of Altair SLC Hub to be uninstalled and then a new version to be installed without removing any configuration data.

To completely remove Altair SLC Hub from the machine it is necessary to manually delete any custom configuration files that might have been created in the installation directory, and to remove the [var directory] directory.
