ID 256348
The procedure for removing the Integration Server depends on which version of Kaspersky Security Center you are using to manage the Kaspersky Security solution:
- If you are using a Windows-based Kaspersky Security Center, and in accordance with the recommendations of Kaspersky experts, you used the Kaspersky Security components installation wizard to install the Integration Server and Integration Server Console, we recommend removing using the wizard as well.
You can remove the Integration Server and Integration Server Console by using the Kaspersky Security Components Installation Wizard in interactive mode or in silent mode.
- If you are using a Linux-based Kaspersky Security Center, the Kaspersky Security Components Installation Wizard cannot be used to remove the Integration Server and Integration Server Console. Removal is performed manually.
When removing the Integration Server, you can save the following data used in the operation of the Integration Server for Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 6.1 Light Agent:
- The SSL certificate used to establish a secure connection to the Integration Server.
- Accounts for connecting the Integration Server Console, SVM, and Light Agents to the Integration Server.
- Settings for connecting the Integration Server to hypervisors, virtual infrastructure administration servers, NSX Manager, Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server.
- if the Kaspersky Security solution is used in multi-tenancy mode: a list of registered tenants and information about the time that virtual machines were protected by the solution.
- SVM service data.
- Trace files of the Integration Server and Integration Server Console.
A backup copy of the Integration Server data from the previous version of Kaspersky Security can also be saved if you saved a backup copy of the database and settings and the certificate of the Integration Server in the default folder (%ProgramData%\Kaspersky Lab\VIISLA\Backup\) when upgrading the solution to Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 6.1 Light Agent.
The saved data and settings are automatically used when you install the Integration Server again.
If you remove the Integration Server without saving the data, then along with the Integration Server, all data used in the operation of the Integration Server for the version of Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 6.1 Light Agent is deleted, as well as the backup copy of the data from the Integration Server of the previous version of Kaspersky Security, if the backup copy is located in the default folder.
If, when saving a backup copy of the Integration Server data from the previous version of Kaspersky Security, you specified a different folder than the default folder, then when you remove the Integration Server, the backup copy of the data is not deleted automatically. You can delete a backup copy of Integration Server data manually.
If you are using Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 5.2 Light Agent to protect virtual machines running Windows guest operating systems, the removal procedure will only remove information about Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 6.1 Light Agent from the operating system. The Integration Server and Integration Server Console components will not be removed, because they are used in Kaspersky Security version 5.2. You can remove the Integration Server and Integration Server Console during uninstallation of Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 5.2 Light Agent.
