How to uninstall sensor

The QualysContainerSensor.tar.xz file (which you download for sensor installation from Qualys Cloud Platform) has the script uninstallsensor.sh for uninstalling the sensor.

To uninstall a sensor:

If the docker host is configured to communicate over docker.sock, use the following command:

./uninstallsensor.sh -s

If the docker host is configured to communicate over TCP socket then provide the address on which docker daemon is configured to listen:

./uninstallsensor.sh DockerHost=<<IPv4 address or FQDN>:<Port#>> -s

For example:

./uninstallsensor.sh DockerHost=10.11.12.13:1234 -s

Follow the on-screen prompts to uninstall the sensor. Qualys recommends not to clear the persistent storage.
