BOS_UNINSTALL(8)					       AFS Command Reference						  BOS_UNINSTALL(8)

NAME

       bos_uninstall - Reverts to the former version of a process's binary file

SYNOPSIS

       bos uninstall -server <machine name>
	   -file <files to uninstall>+ [-dir <destination dir>]
	   [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]

       bos u -s <machine name> -f <files to uninstall>+
	   [-d <destination dir>] [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l]
	   [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The bos uninstall command replaces each binary file specified by the -file argument with its ".BAK" version on the server machine named by
       the -server argument, which is normally the binary distribution machine for its CPU/operating system type. It also changes the extension on
       the current ".OLD" version (if any) to ".BAK". Each binary file must reside in the local /usr/lib/openafs directory unless the -dir
       argument names an alternate directory.

       To start using the reverted binary immediately, issue the bos restart command. Otherwise, the BOS Server automatically restarts the process
       at the time defined in the /etc/openafs/BosConfig file; use the bos getrestart command to display the time and the bos setrestart time to
       set it.

OPTIONS

       -server <machine name>
	   Indicates the binary distribution machine on which to revert to the ".BAK" version of binaries. Identify the machine by IP address or
	   its host name (either fully-qualified or abbreviated unambiguously). For details, see bos(8).

	   If the machine is not a binary distribution machine and is running an "upclientbin" process, then the files are overwritten the next
	   time the "upclientbin" process fetches the corresponding file from the distribution machine (by default within five minutes).

       -file <files to uninstall>+
	   Names each binary file to replace with its ".BAK" version.

       -dir <destinatino dir>
	   Provides the complete pathname of the local disk directory containing each file named by the -file argument. It is necessary only if
	   the binaries are not in the /usr/lib/openafs directory.

       -cell <cell name>
	   Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).

       -noauth
	   Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the -localauth flag. For more details, see
	   bos(8).

       -localauth
	   Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The bos command interpreter presents the ticket
	   to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more details, see
	   bos(8).

       -help
	   Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES

       The following example command overwrites the /usr/lib/openafs/kaserver file on the machine "fs4.abc.com" with its ".BAK" version, and the
       current ".BAK" version by the ".OLD" version.

	  % bos uninstall -server fs4.abc.com -file kaserver

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named by the -server argument, or must be logged onto a
       server machine as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is included.

       The bos uninstall command cannot be run against servers running in restricted mode.
