Unattended uninstall switches and parameters
This section describes the switches and parameters you can configure when running an unattended uninstall of Content Manager server features.
Start by using the basic command syntax:
TridionSites.exe -s [-log "LOGPATH\LOGFILENAME.log" ]PARAMS
where
- LOGPATH is a path to a custom log location
- LOGFILENAME is a custom filename base for the log file
- PARAMS is a sequence of zero or more parameters of the form
PARAM=VALUE, denoting the software component(s) you want to uninstall.
If you omit the -log switch, the installer creates a log file in C:\ProgramData\RWS\Tridion Sites\Logs\.
If you attempt to uninstall a feature or subfeature on which other installed features or subfeatures depend, the uninstall process will be interrupted.
The following table shows the named parameters you can use for the uninstallation. Set the value of the parameter to the value (All), or alternatively, to uninstall one or more specific subfeatures, to the value of the subfeature(s) you want to uninstall.
