Uninstall the Agent Client Collector from a macOS machine manually

Uninstall the Agent Client Collector from a macOS machine manually instead of using the single-line procedure when the specific agent is not connected to the instance.

Before you begin

  • The upgrade procedure is the same for both MID Server and MID-less deployments.
  • Role required: agent_client_collector_admin

Procedure

  1. In a command window, disable and stop the service:

    sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.sn.acc.plist

  2. Delete the following files/directories:

    sudo rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.sn.acc.plist
    sudo rm -rf /opt/servicenow/agent-client-collector
    sudo rm -rf /var/run/servicenow/agent-client-collector
    sudo rm -rf /Library/Application\ Support/servicenow/agent-client-collector
    
  3. Remove the _servicenow user and group.

    sudo /usr/bin/dscl . -delete /Users/_servicenow
    sudo /usr/bin/dscl . -delete /Groups/_servicenow
    
  4. Remove the pkg from the list of installed packages.

    sudo pkgutil --forget com.servicenow.agent-client-collector
