The provider is a component that is only invoked by request, so
if it’s left on a server, it will not cause any harm. There are
three ways to uninstall providers:
Remotely uninstall providers by using the console.
Uninstall providers locally by using the command line.
Uninstall providers locally by using Add or Remove Programs in
Control Panel.
Before uninstalling providers, note that multiple controllers
can share a single provider. Therefore, before uninstalling a
provider, make sure that no controllers are using the provider.
To remotely uninstall providers by using the
console
On the Tools menu, click Configure
Ultrasound.
Under Monitored FRS replica sets, choose the replica set
for which you want to uninstall providers. (You can also press the
CTRL key and click to select multiple replica sets.)
Under Ultrasound WMI Provider Deployment Status, click
the replica member on which you want to uninstall the provider, and
then click Uninstall Provider. (You can also press the CTRL
key and click to select multiple servers.)
To uninstall providers locally by using the
command line
Copy the provider file USProvider.msi from the Program
Files\FRS Monitoring folder on the console server to the servers on
which you want to uninstall the provider.
On the servers, at the command prompt, type the following:
msiexec /x Installerpackage
In the above syntax, for Installerpackage substitute the
path and file name of the file USProvider.msi (for example,
F:\Data\USProvider.msi).
If the installer package is not available, use the following
command instead:
msiexec /x {632B88AD-6ABC-489D-8B8D-CB84C4987251}
On the console server, run Ultrasound.
On the Tools menu, click Configure
Ultrasound.
Under Monitored FRS replica sets, click the replica set
whose members you uninstalled providers by using the command
line.
Under Ultrasound WMI Provider Deployment Status,
right-click the replica member on which you installed the provider,
point to Override Deployment State, and then click
Uninstalled.
