KB No. 2771: UNINSTALLING OLFEO

In some cases, you will need to uninstall the Olfeo system. This KB explains how to uninstall Olfeo.

Olfeo virtual appliances

If the Olfeo equipment is a virtual appliance (OLFEO6V50, OLFEO6V200, OLFEO6V500, or OLFEO6V1000), an uninstallation script,uninstallation_olfeo.sh, is available in the/home/olfeo/ directory.

Make the script executable:chmod +xuninstall_olfeo.sh

Run the script:./uninstall_olfeo.sh

Software installation

In the chroot

Run the script ⇒/olfeo-stop.sh

Then run olfeo-status.sh toensure that the services are stopped.

Then exit chroot

Run the following commands:

systemctl stop olfeo-chroot

systemctl status olfeo-chroot

If chroot and services are properly stopped, you can run the following commands:

–  umount /opt/olfeo/chroot/opt/olfeo/data/proxy/cache

umount /opt/olfeo/chroot/opt/olfeo/data

rm /opt/olfeo/ -rf

–  rm /etc/systemd/system/default.target.wants/olfeo-chroot.service

Your Olfeo is now successfully uninstalled.

Warning: when using Debian 11 or 12 as the host system!

Consider using nsenter in place of chroot /opt/olfeo/chroot.

The command nsenter allows you to execute a shell in the same environment (namespace) as a target process.
