6. Removing the Nx AI Manager

Uninstalling the Nx AI Manager

It might be desired to remove the Nx AI Manager installation, due to a corrupted install or if you want to reinstall the Nx AI Manager with a different acceleration library.

The AI Manaer can be removed by simply deleting the folder, assuming default installation:

sudo rm -r /opt/networkoptix-metavms/mediaserver/bin/plugins/nxai_plugin/nxai_manager

When the mediaserver is restarted, the plugin will reinstall the Nx AI Manager.

Removing the Nx AI plugin

Removing the Nx AI Plugin can lead to the Nx Mediaserver crashing if it is in use.

For added safety, disable the plugin on all devices on the server before removing. This is not full-proof, however, and could still lead to crashes. The only fully safe method of removing the plugin would be to first stop the mediaserver:

sudo systemctl stop networkoptix-metavms-mediaserver.service

To remove the Nx AI plugin from your Nx Meta server, log in to the server console and execute the following command:

sudo rm -r /opt/networkoptix-metavms/mediaserver/bin/plugins/nxai_plugin

If you stopped the mediaserver, it is now safe to restart it:

sudo systemctl start networkoptix-metavms-mediaserver.service

Restarting the Nx Meta mediaserver

After uninstalling the Nx plugin and AI manager, restart the Nx mediaserver for these changes to take effect.
