Zenworks uninstall command line

How do I get it to discover? Usually i would just do the installation and then it would automatically register. I'm on Windows 7. Windows 7 is not supported until I have the same issue removing the agent from our machines. The quickest fix for me is to uninstall the Zen Agent, which fails, but I reboot anyway.

There is one caveat where ripping zenworks off this way would turn off the nwgina leaving me with a windows login upon boot in some cases. Craig Wilson posted some really good info in that post i used, so maybe give the forum a quick search. I'm having the same issues. I have read the documentation to try and find the command line switches, found some mention of them here " Novell Documentation " which mentions 3.

However, you must specify the argument with the port number if the Primary Server is not running on the default ports.

Sole, will this script run for users with limited policy rights?

Hi Jeff, I would guess that the script would be unsuccessfull if used for users with limited rights, i. Otherwise it should be fine. This may be a silly question, but this appears at first glance to be for removing the ZFDAgent from the workstations…or is this applicable to removing Zenworks from Windows servers?

This script can actually be used to uninstall a lot of different software. So I would guess that this could be used on servers and workstations with no problems. All you have to do is look at a server and find the program that you want uninstalled in registry and find its guid.

If nothing else you could always try running the script on a server, it will only uninstall software that matches the guids in this post dont forget to add the extra ones reported in comments, and if you find new GUIDs for the agent add a comment with them for others to use.

Hi sole need to uninstall the zen works agent which is placed in almost desktops, Could please give the right code either a batch file or a vb so that i can include in users logon as they login with novel client id using Edirectory. For Each subkey in arrSubKeys oReg.

Instead of making an array of all product codes, why not just pull the current product code from the registry? Would be more flexible with new versions and work with any program you wanted to remove. Just wanted to share my modification of the original script. This i use to uninstall zenworks Terminate Next.

StopService objService. Delete Next. ExecQuery wmiQuery. For Each objItem in colItems objItem. The users in my environment do not have admin rights, but there is a local admin account on each machine with admin rights. This is a general problem with scripts. Either you will use an approach where you do a run-as for the script, or you will find a way to execute it with higher permissions, i.

GPO script that will execute with higher permissions than the user logging on to the machine. It sounds like you have a general problem running the VBScripts, perhaps permissions? Are you running theese in a command prompt with administrator permissions? Right click Run As Admin As you are having problems with both scripts, I am guessing it is a problem with scripts or permissions. Both use registry to search for clients, so try and look with regedit if you can find the keys the script search for.

Thanks for this script! We have a lot of workstations that are no longer communicating with the Zenworks server, but still have the agent.

I want to use it to remove the agents, in the future, but I have some questions. Also, is it likely that removing any of these could render the Novell Client inoperable? You will need to do your own testing for what works in your environment with your versions of the software. But you should test this for your system.

I hope to do some test uninstalls in the next day or so. Thank for the help!
