Splunk Uninstall

Trying to get Splunk off a box so I can install with what I hope to be better knowledge so I can improve our documentation. for the command rpm -e splunk_product_name what does splunk_product_name refer to? It doesn't seem to like the .rpm for that.

Thanks!

Try this:

Run rpm -qa | grep splunk to list installed packages and find the one for Splunk. Then rpm rpm -e <package_name>, where package_name is the value shown from the first command.
