If you update your Linux-based operating system to a major version, you may be required to uninstall the xAgent software. The uninstall command required to uninstall the Endpoint Security (HX) software version 36.21.0 on your Linux endpoint is determined by the file type you used to install the xAgent software on your Linux endpoint.

When you are ready to reinstall the xAgent on your endpoint, use the .rpm or .deb file that is compatible with your Linux operating system version. See the Endpoint Security Agent (HX) Deployment Guide for more information.
