Hi
I am trying to un-install DS 8.1 from my AIX server.I ran the uninstall script with ROOT privilage.
During un-install it asked me for the password for IIS and WAS and then it goes into some kind of LOOP and I dont understand what is happening in the backgroud.

If you had all the fix packs and patches installed, two hours is no surprise. Give it at least four hours. Ask yourself what was the total time spent installing.
