Unconfiguring the NIM Master

This operation removes the NIM daemons from the system and removes all configuration from the NIM database. The NIM master should only be unconfigured if the NIM environment is to be completely redefined or if the NIM master fileset is to be removed from the system.

From Web-based System Manager

  1. From the NIM Container, from the NIM menu, select Unconfigure Environment.
  2. You have the option to back up the NIM database before starting the unconfigure action.

From SMIT

To unconfigure a NIM master, enter the smit nim_unconfig fast path.

The SMIT screen will prompt you to first back up your NIM database before unconfiguring the NIM master.

From the Command Line

To unconfigure a NIM master, enter nim -o unconfig master.
