Remove CPM for Mac Clients

To uninstall CPM for Mac from the IBM BigFix Server, you first remove all the CPM for Mac clients deployed to the endpoints, then remove the CPM for Mac server components from the server, including any mastheads. You can do the former by running the Endpoint Uninstall Task.

  1. From the BigFix Console, click Endpoint Protection on the bottom left pane.
  2. From the upper left navigation pane, go to Core Protection Module > Deployment > Uninstall.
  3. From the list on the right, select Core Protection Module for Mac - Endpoint Uninstall. A screen displaying the Task Description tab appears.
  4. Below Actions, click the hyperlink to open the Take Action window.
  5. Select the computers you want to target and click OK.
  6. At the prompt, type your private key password and click OK. The uninstall sequence begins.
  7. In screen that appears, click the Reported Computers tab to follow the status of the scan.

It usually takes a few minutes for targeted computers to report back their Action status.
