After each system is migrated to the new IBM Systems Director Server, you may want to

configure other functions required for that system such as monitoring, automated events, and

commands.

3.4 Decommissioning CSM

After a successful migration of all your systems to the new IBM Systems Director Server, or

after you have solved all the problems encountered during the transformation, it is time to

decommision the CSM Cluster.

Before decommissioning we advise you to make a fresh backup of the CSM configuration

data using the csmbackup command. This command provides the latest copy of your

environment. 5.4, “Backup and restore of the management server” on page 139 provides

more details about backup and restore.

We also recommend to save a copy of this backup on external media. This provides the ability

to restore your CSM data in event that is necessary.

Note: Refer to IBM Cluster Systems Management for AIX 5L™ Command and Technical

Reference Version 1.7.1, SA22-7934 for information about the csmbackup command.

Note: At this point we assume you have migrated all the required CSM functions available

in the IBM Systems Director environment.

Chapter 3. Transformation scenarios 71

To uninstall the CSM Management Server, execute the following steps:

򐂰 Stop the rsct_rm agent before the unistallation:

stopsrc -s rsct_rm

򐂰 Remove the CSM Server filesets using:

uninstallms

For more details, including optional flags for uninstallms, see the CSM Command Reference,

SA22-7934.

For the coexistence scenario where both products were running on the same system, after

the CSM removal we tested some IBM Systems Director features and determined that this

removal did not affect the IBM Systems Director capabilities.

Note: Particularly in the coexistence scenario, the CSM uninstallation removes the csm.dsh

fileset. For a proper functioning of dsh features in IBM Systems Director, this fileset has to

be installed on the IBM Systems Director Server. This fileset is available starting with AIX

6.1 TL 06 or later.
