How to delete a plugin?

[MadMe]

I updated the sunx64 plugin so that it reads the correct values of my server. But for some reason it puts the coretemperature at the "axial fan blowerspeed" . And there is no seperate value for the coretemperatures.

Somehow the plugin is corrupt inside the HQ server, i removed all instances from the agent and the server and installed the new ones but no luck.

BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THE FOLLOWING SQL

Currently the only way to really remove a plugin is via SQL. Please, be careful. One false move can be very destructive:

DELETE FROM EAM_MEASUREMENT
WHERE TEMPLATE_ID IN (SELECT ID
FROM EAM_MEASUREMENT_TEMPL
WHERE PLUGIN = 'pluginname');

DELETE FROM EAM_MEASUREMENT_TEMPL
WHERE PLUGIN = 'pluginname';

DELETE FROM EAM_PLATFORM_SERVER_TYPE_MAP
WHERE SERVER_TYPE_ID IN (SELECT ID
FROM EAM_SERVER_TYPE
WHERE PLUGIN = 'pluginname');

DELETE FROM EAM_SERVICE_TYPE
WHERE PLUGIN = 'pluginname';

DELETE FROM EAM_SERVER_TYPE
WHERE PLUGIN = 'pluginname';

DELETE FROM EAM_PLATFORM_TYPE
WHERE PLUGIN = 'pluginname';

DELETE FROM EAM_PLUGIN
WHERE NAME = 'pluginname';

Hi,

I think you goal is not to remove the plugin, you goal is to have a running version of the plugin. I advise you to remove all instances of the plugin (resources) an start the plugin development from scratch while keeping in mind the following guidlines:

If you have a proper plugin, deploy it to your environment and overwrite the existing plugin.
