Dear Amit,
The uninstallation password prevents unauthorized users from removing the Symantec DLP Agent from an endpoint computer. If an unauthorized user tries to remove the agent without the password, the agent cannot be removed. When you create or assign the password during agent installation, it cannot be changed unless the agent is removed and then reinstalled. When you want to remove an agent from an endpoint computer, the uninstallation password parameter pop-up window requests the uninstallation password. If you remove agents from a large number of endpoint computers using an agent management system, the password must be ncluded in the uninstallation command line.
By default, there is a limit to how many times an administrator can enter the wrong password. If the limit is exceeded, the uninstallation process quits and the process must be restarted.
You generate a secure uninstallation password by using the
UninstallPwdKeyGenerator.exe tool.
You can generate more than one password if you want to assign different passwords to different groups of endpoint computers.
