Hi,
I was trying to uninstall Splunk due to some issues in existing installation. I followed the steps for "Uninstall Splunk Enterprise manually" as mentioned on below link:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.0.0/Installation/UninstallSplunk
But as soon as I executed the below command (as directed on above link), the next moment, I got Connection Refused error port 22 for the server. I don't know how is this related, any hint will be really helpful.
kill -9 ps -ef | grep splunk | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2;}'
Thanks in advance
Can you run the ps -ef command without the awk and kill command and list the output for us?
hi, I am unable to login to the server using ssh now (as I am getting Connection refused error on port 22 after running the Kill command). So unfortunately wont be able to give the output.
Are you by any chance SSH'ed in as a user that has 'splunk' in the user name and hence are killing your own SSH session?
HI, That's a great question. But I was logged in as Root that time, do you think it might cause this issue?
Hey @sancharigupta, can you let us know what version of Splunk you were using and more about your environment? That might help people diagnose further. Thanks!
Hi, it was Splunk Enterprise version 6.6.3.
