Uninstalling Licensing Software on Linux

You may want to remove the licensing software.

Note:

If you are using licensing from within an application tree, this procedure does not apply.

Prerequisites

Shut down the license manager.
The license daemons write their last messages to the log file, close the file, and exit. All licenses that were checked out are rescinded. When the license manager restarts, the applications attempt to reacquire their licenses.
1. Use lmdown -c to shut down the license daemons and confirm the shutdown.
```
$ lmutil lmdown -c {license_file | port@host}
```
  Note:
  If you do not set LM_LICENSE_FILE, you must use the -c switch with all lm* commands.
2. If you started the daemon with a server debug log file, check the log to ensure the daemons have exited.
```
$ tail -f  logfile
```
```
6/24 12:00(lmgrd)SHUTDOWN request from davem at node davem
6/24 12:00(lmgrd)Shutting down mgcld
6/24 12:00(mgcld)daemon shutdown requested-shutting down
```
Delete the mgls_v*.vco folder.
For example:
```
$ rm -Rf mgls_v9-13_5-2-0.aol
```
