3. Verify no users are connected to the library. See the ShowCase 9 Administrator's Guide for instructions.
4. Restore the UNINSTSC utility from the UNINSTSC save file that exists in the server library by entering the following command:

RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(QTEMP) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(serverlib/UNINSTSC)
