Introduction

It sounds strange and it's kind of controversial way of supporting the FIM product, but uninstalling FIM properly is part of the FIM administrators job too.
There might be various reasons to remove the product from your environtment.
- after a merger, the product is migrated to another FIM installation on another network
- only particular and limited functionality is used (and more specifically served by another product)
- functionality is phased out, installed functions are not used anymore
- (feel free to add more scenarios in here)
