This issue has been solved. See solution.

Hi

I’m on the job of upgrading my company's esm infra to V9. There is N number of 6.5.3 agents currently available in my network. I trying to uninstall them through script but I don’t have the esm agent 6.5.3 product code (similar like V 9's {7EEF9C8C-337D-45D0-A6F4-9ABBD24D452D})

Can someone share with me the product code for esm agent 6.5.3?

 

Regards

Shivaji

upgrading to ESM v9.0

Hi Shivaji,

             If you are planning to upgrade to ESM Agent v9.0, you don't need to uninstall ESM 6.5.3 Agents. you can just run ESM Agent v9.0 installer, It takes care of uninstalling 6.5.3 and then upgrade to 9.0.

Just for your information you can always find uninstall command of installed product in registries at

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{ProductCode}         see the value of key "UninstallString"
