• If you are not familiar with the deinstallation of RPM packages, please refer to the regular user's guide or your Linux system documentation.
• Before you deinstall a VE license server, make sure that no active emulator guest system depends on this license server.
• Shut down any running emulator guest systems depending on this license server.
• Please refer to the general Charon -SSP user's guide for information on how to remove the Charon -SSP emulator software.
• If you re-install the license server again after the deinstallation, the license (V2C file) must be imported again using the v2c utility.

To upgrade uninstall the license server package, perform the following steps:

   # ssh -i ~/.ssh/<mykey> <user>@<cloud <user>@<linux-instance-ip>
   1. <mykey> is the private key of the key-pair you associated with your cloud instance
      (not needed for an on-premises VMware installation that allows login with username/password).
   2. <user> is the user for interactive login associated with your cloud license server instance (e.g., opc on OCI, or centos for a CentOS instance on AWS, or the custom user of your VMware host;
      for an instance installed from a prepackaged, supported Charon -SSP VE marketplace image, use sshuser for Charon-SSP and centos for Charon-PAR)
   3. <cloud-instance<linux-ip> the ip address of your cloud instance
      
      
2. As a privileged user (root) perform the deinstallation command:
   
   1. Become the root user:          # sudo -i
   2. Remove the VE license server package:             
      1. Linux 7.x: # yum erase license-server*.rpm
      2. Linux 8.x: # dnf erase license-server*.rpm
