=== Description
The `uninstall-node-dcom` subcommand uninstalls {productName}
software from the hosts that are specified as the operand of the
subcommand. This subcommand requires the Distributed Component Object
Model (DCOM) remote protocol to be configured on the host where the
subcommand is run and on each host where the {productName} software
is being uninstalled.
[NOTE]
====
To uninstall {productName} software on hosts that use secure shell
(SSH), use the
link:uninstall-node-ssh.html#uninstall-node-ssh-1[`uninstall-node-ssh`(1)]
subcommand.
====
By default, if any node except the predefined node ``localhost-``domain
resides on any host from which {productName} software is being
uninstalled, the subcommand fails. To uninstall the {productName}
software from a host on which user-defined nodes reside, set the
`--force` option to `true`. If the `--force` option is `true`, the
subcommand removes the entire content of the parent of the base
installation directory.
If a file under the parent of the base installation directory is open,
the subcommand fails.
If multiple hosts are specified, the configuration of the following
items must be the same on all hosts:
* Parent of the base installation directory for the {productName} software
* Windows user
* Windows domain
The subcommand does not modify the configuration of the domain
administration server (DAS).
This subcommand is supported in local mode only.

`--force`::
Specifies whether the subcommand uninstalls the {productName}
software from a host even if a user-defined node resides on the host.
Possible values are as follows:
`false`;;
If a user-defined node resides on a host, the software is not
uninstalled and the subcommand fails (default). +
If the `--force` option is `false`, the subcommand removes only the
{productName} software files. Other content if the parent of the
base installation directory, such as configuration files, are not removed.
`true`;;
The subcommand uninstalls the {productName} software from the
host even if a user-defined node resides on the host.
