When Identity Manager is installed, there is an uninstall script that is placed on the Identity Manager server. It allows you to remove all services, packages, and directories that were created when Identity Manager was installed.
To uninstall Identity Manager on Linux/UNIX, run the uninstall script located at /root/idm/Uninstall_Identity_Manager/Uninstall_Identity_Manager. To execute the script, enter ./Uninstall_Identity_Manager.
If you installed Identity Manager as a non-root user, the idm directory is placed in the directory of the user that installed Identity Manager.
The procedure to uninstall the Metadirectory server is different for each of the supported Windows platforms.

Windows 2008 SP1 (32-bit and 64-bit): Click > , then right-click and select .
To uninstall a non-root installation of Identity Manager, you need to run the uninstall script as the user that installed Identity Manager. It is located /eDirectory_Base_Directory/opt/novell/eDirectory/bin/idm-uninstall.
The script cleans up the user rpm database created during the installation of Identity Manager.
