| Definitely a good idea to test something like this on a few systems to make sure it works as expected first before deploying widely, though even then this might not have poped up until it was used in production. Definitely a bummer. | |

| I used the fixlet on ~100 sql servers to upgrade to the latest TSM/TDP clients using Server Automation, and only the active node of our 2008 R2 SQL cluster triggered the reboot on the uninstall somehow. It was slightly problematic, but it's done now. The exit code was 1641, which is successful uninstall with reboot triggered. | |

| Thanks for letting me know. The `/qn` at the end should have handled that, but it is possible that some versions of TSM require `/norestart` as well to prevent this from happening. I didn't see this in testing when I created this originally. | |
|
|
| I needed to add a /norestart flag at the end due to it rebooting a server unintentionally. | |

| Because this relevance uses "native registry" this one uninstaller will uninstall both the 32bit or 64bit version on the respective 32bit or 64bit system. Because this is a backup application you cannot install the 32bit version on a 64bit system. | |
