2. Option II - Use Command Line Utility

  1. On each cluster host, execute the following command from the command shell:

    msiexec /x "$MSI_PATH" /lv "$PATH_to_Installer_Log_File"

    where

    • $MSI_PATH is the full path to MSI.

    • $PATH_to_Installer_Log_File is full path to Installer log file.

  2. Optionally, you can also specify if you want delete the data in target data directories.

    To do this, use the DESTROY_DATA command line option as shown below:

    msiexec /x "$MSI_PATH" /lv "$PATH_to_Installer_Log_File" DESTROY_DATA="yes"

    [Note]Note

    During uninstall if DESTROY_DATA is not specified or set to no, data directories are preserved as well as the hadoop user that owns them.
