  "content": "\nUse the script `rl_uninstall.sh` to uninstall Redis Enterprise Software and remove its files from a node. The script also deletes all Redis data and configuration from the node.\n\nThe uninstall script does not remove the node from the cluster, but the node's status changes to down. For node removal instructions, see [Remove a cluster node]().\n\n## Uninstall Redis Enterprise Software\n\nTo uninstall Redis Enterprise Software from a cluster node:\n\n1. Navigate to the script's location, which is in `/opt/redislabs/bin/` by default.\n\n1. Run the uninstall script as the root user:\n\n    ```sh\n    sudo ./rl_uninstall.sh\n    ```\n\nWhen you run the uninstall script on a node, it only uninstalls Redis Enterprise Software from that node. To uninstall Redis Enterprise Software for the entire cluster, run the uninstall script on each cluster node.\n",
