Guide for regional-check-agent, with explanations and extra cleanup options:

---

Stop and Disable the Service

sudo systemctl stop regional-check-agent
sudo systemctl disable regional-check-agent

• disable → prevents it from auto-starting at boot.

---

Uninstall Options

1. Remove Package (keep configs & logs)

   sudo dpkg -r regional-check-agent

   • Uninstalls the binaries.

   • Keeps configuration files (often in /etc/regional-check-agent.service/) and logs.

   • Use this if you want to reinstall later without losing settings.

2. Purge Package (remove everything)

   sudo dpkg --purge regional-check-agent 

   • Removes binaries and configuration files.

   • Leaves nothing behind from the .deb package.

   • Best choice for a clean uninstall.

Verify Removal

dpkg -l | grep regional-check-agent

• If nothing shows up → package is gone.

• If you see rc → it was removed but config files are still present.

Optional: Clean Residual Data

If the agent stored runtime data or logs outside the package (common locations):

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/regional-check-agent
sudo rm -rf /var/log/regional-check-agent

---

After this, distributed-regional-check-agent will be fully removed.
