EnglishUninstalling CloudLinux or its features depends on the specific components you want to remove. Here are instructions for uninstalling different aspects of CloudLinux:
Uninstalling CloudLinux OS:
If you want to completely remove CloudLinux OS from your server, you'll need to reinstall a different operating system. Keep in mind that this process involves wiping the current system and starting fresh.
-
Back-Up Data: Before proceeding, make sure to back up any important data, configurations, or databases on your server.
-
Prepare Installation Media: Obtain installation media (e.g., bootable USB or ISO) for the desired operating system you want to install.
-
Boot from Installation Media: Boot your server from the installation media.
-
Follow Installation Instructions: Follow the installation instructions provided by the new operating system's installer. This will typically involve selecting installation options, partitioning the disk, setting up network configurations, etc.
-
Format Disk (Optional): If you want to completely wipe the existing CloudLinux installation, you may choose to format the disk during the installation process.
-
Complete Installation: Follow the prompts and complete the installation process.
Uninstalling CloudLinux Kernel:
If you're using the CloudLinux Kernel on a CentOS or RHEL system and want to revert to the default kernel, follow these steps:
-
Remove CloudLinux Kernel: You can remove the CloudLinux Kernel using the package manager (
yum):bash
-
yum remove kernel -
Reinstall Original Kernel (Optional): To install the default CentOS or RHEL kernel, use:
bash -
yum install kernel -
Update GRUB (Optional): After reinstalling the original kernel, update the GRUB bootloader configuration:
bash
-
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Uninstalling CloudLinux Features (e.g., CageFS, LVE):
If you want to remove specific CloudLinux features like CageFS or LVE, you can do so using the CloudLinux LVE Manager:
-
Log in to WHM: Log in to WHM with your administrator credentials.
-
Navigate to LVE Manager: In WHM, go to "Home" > "Plugins" > "LVE Manager".
-
Disable and Remove Features: Within the LVE Manager, you can disable and remove features like CageFS, LVE, and other CloudLinux components.
Please exercise caution when uninstalling any component of your server's operating system, and always back up important data before making significant changes. If you're uncertain about any step, consider seeking advice from a qualified system administrator or CloudLinux support.
