Removing WebSphere Real Time for AIX on 64-bit POWER Beta code

If you installed a beta version of IBM® WebSphere® Real Time for AIX® on 64-bit POWER®, remove the beta configuration changes before installing WebSphere Real Time for AIX on 64-bit POWER.

Removing the beta configuration changes

A number of changes are necessary to restore the original configuration settings. Follow these instructions to remove the changes that were made to access the realtime clock, and remove the workaround that changed the values for syscorepath.
Note: In these instructions, <username> refers to the non-root user who was originally granted the security privileges required to install WebSphere Real Time for AIX on 64-bit POWER.
  1. Edit the /etc/security/privcmds file, and remove the following lines that were appended to the original file:
    /bluebird/<username>/bin/platform/aix/bash:
    	authprivs = realtime_auth=PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	accessauths = ALLOW_ALL
    	inheritprivs = PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	secflags = FSF_EPS
    
    /bluebird/<username>/bin/platform/aix/tcsh:
    	authprivs = realtime_auth=PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	accessauths = ALLOW_ALL
    	inheritprivs = PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	secflags = FSF_EPS
    
    /usr/bin/sh:
    	authprivs = realtime_auth=PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	accessauths = ALLOW_ALL
    	inheritprivs = PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	secflags = FSF_EPS
    
    /usr/bin/ksh:
    	authprivs = realtime_auth=PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	accessauths = ALLOW_ALL
    	inheritprivs = PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	secflags = FSF_EPS
    
    /usr/bin/csh:
    	authprivs = realtime_auth=PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	accessauths = ALLOW_ALL
    	inheritprivs = PV_PROC_RTCLK
    	secflags = FSF_EPS
  2. Edit the /etc/security/user file, and search for the non-root user account. Remove the following line:
    default_roles = realtime_role
    The section containing this line is like the following:
    <username>:
    	admin = false
    	capabilities = CAP_NUMA_ATTACH,CAP_PROPAGATE
    	default_roles = realtime_role
    Note: <username> refers to the non-root user account.
  3. Edit the /etc/security/user.roles file, and search for the non-root user account. Remove the following line:
    default_roles = realtime_role
    The section containing this line is like the following:
    <username>:
    	roles = realtime_role
    Note: <username> refers to the non-root user account.
  4. Rebuild the security tables by running the command:
    setkst
  5. Remove the syscorepath workaround that was applied, by typing the following command:
    syscorepath -c
