Uninstall Script

[frakman1]

Is there a way to uninstall it? Or at least disable it so it doesn't run and take up resources, updating and using TCP ports?

Hi there, I haven't done an uninstall for it but you can stop it updating by disabling the cron jobs that do that. I don't have it in front of me but they should be in the crontab of the gvm user.

The services that run can be disabled with systemctl disable <service name>. Again, I don't have it in front of me but there should be an openvas, gvm, and gsa service.

Hope that helps.

Yes, Thank you. I found them all. As the gvm user, "crontab -e" allowed me to comment out all the jobs:

#38 12 * * * /opt/gvm/sbin/greenbone-scapdata-sync
#16 17 * * * /opt/gvm/bin/greenbone-nvt-sync
#26 12 * * * /opt/gvm/sbin/greenbone-certdata-sync
#12 14 * * * /usr/bin/sudo /opt/gvm/sbin/openvas --update-vt-info

systemctl disable followed by stop for these services:

systemctl disable --now openvas
systemctl disable --now gvm
systemctl disable --now gsa
