From the latest Advanced Concepts guide:
Uninstalling MetaFrame Servers in Indirect Mode
If you remove MetaFrame XP from the server that directly accesses the data
store,
any servers that indirectly access the data store lose access to the data
store.
Information such as licensing and product codes is lost. Citrix recommends
that you
uninstall MetaFrame from the indirect servers first and the direct server
last.
Uninstalling MetaFrame from the direct server first prevents any other
servers from
being removed from the data store.
To force an uninstall of MetaFrame when the data store cannot be accessed,
use the
following command:
msiexec /x mfxp001.msi
CTX_MF_FORCE_SUBSYSTEM_UNINSTALL=YES
where /x is the uninstall switch and mfxp001.msi is the name and location of
the
MetaFrame XP Feature Release 2 Windows Installer package. For more
information about how to pass properties to the Windows Installer, see the
MetaFrame XP Administrator's Guide.
