SunMC console
How can you reinstall or remove the console component w/o wiping the entire sunmc install? Or maybe even trick either the es-install/guiinst to think its not installed so it can be reinstalled? I've tried to research this on the web and have not been able to find much. I've ran the es-inst, es-uninst, guiinst, and guiuninst and do not see any options for re-install or removal. I am currently attempting to go through the install script to try and find out what is actually querying so that it knows that the console is installed. My console install on our master server seems to only be a partially there and is not working. I'm not sure what happened, but ./es-start -c complained of es-console.sh was missing. Upon further investigation I noticed the entire /opt/SUNWsymon/classes/base/console/bin directory had not been created.

Have you re-run es-inst, or just executed it to look for a re-inst option?You can re-run es-inst, and if there are missing packages, it may install them.
Now, assuming this doesn't fix your problem, and you want to figure out what you need, on my Sol10 3.5.1a system, I have the following (note the package category for Sun MC is symon, its ancestor):
bash-3.00# pkginfo -c symon | grep -i console
systemSUNWenesfSun Management Center Console properties
systemSUNWesascSun Management Center Advanced Services Console
systemSUNWescamSun Management Center Advanced System Monitoring Console components
systemSUNWescdvSun Management Center Console Dataview
systemSUNWescesService Availability Manager add-on for Sun Management Center Console
systemSUNWesconSun Management Center Console
systemSUNWescrgSun Management Center PRM console package
systemSUNWesmc Sun Management Center MCP Console
systemSUNWeswebSun Management Center Web Console
systemSUNWhdrmiHardware Diagnostic Suite Console
systemSUNWlgsmcSun Management Center Web Console Authorization plugin
systemSUNWsuconSun Management Center Dynamic Agent Update Console Components
Maybe you are missing somthing? If this is non-production, you can always do an es-backup, export your Topology,es-uninst , es-inst , es-restore and import your topology, and save any other custom scripts along the way.

Thanks for the quick reply. Yeah, I had re-ran the es-inst to no avail. It exited since I didnt have anything to install selected. I had even went ahead and installed an add-on just to see, but that hadnt worked either. However, I will check against your list to see what I have. I think that may be my best bet at this point....and yes, this is production :(, but on the other hand if it comes to that I can prob blow it away and restore if I had too. Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it
