In a case where you wish to remove CCRC from a Linux host where it is no longer being used, the ClearCase Remote Client can be uninstalled by executing the uninstall binary following the steps below:
1. Login as root and run ls /opt/IBM/Rational/ClearCase/_uninst
In that directory you will find the following directories:
uninstall.bin
uninstall.dat
uninstall.jar
2. While logged in as root run /opt/IBM/Rational/ClearCase/_uninst/uninstall.bin and follow the steps as outlined below.
Note: If you are running a GUI desktop like KDE or Gnome, then the uninstaller will run and ask questions. If you are running the uninstall from a telnet session, you will need to add the switch -console to run in command line mode.
Example (telnet session):
[root@host1 _uninst]# ./uninstall.bin -consoleInstallShield Wizard

WARNING: could not delete locked file /opt/IBM/Rational/ClearCase
WARNING: could not delete locked file /opt/IBM/Rational
WARNING: could not delete locked file /opt/IBM
Note: The above warnings can be safely ignored as you are sitting in a directory that it was trying to delete. The warnings can be avoided during the uninstall by calling the path from outside /opt/IBM/Rational/ClearCase/_uninst, then the first 2 directories can be deleted by the uninstall process.
