13.0 Disabling OES 2 Services

Although you can uninstall Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 (OES) Linux service RPMs through YaST, we do not recommend it because so many modules have interdependencies. Uninstalling services can leave the server in an undesirable state. Instead, we recommend disabling the service.

  1. Log in as root and start YaST.

  2. Click System > System Services (Runlevel).

  3. Select Expert Mode.

  4. Select the applicable_service_name, then click Set/Reset > Disable the service.

  5. Repeat Step 4 for each service you want to disable.

  6. Click Finish to exit the YaST Runlevel tool.

NOTE:YaST does not support removing products that create objects or attributes in eDirectory. You need to use iManager to remove these objects and attributes. For procedures, see Deleting an Object in the Novell iManager 2.7.4 Administration Guide.
