unloading backupdriver kernel module…
ERROR: Module backupdriver is in use
done.

Trying to simply rmmod the driver fails because it’s in use but without having forced support there is no way to unload it using this method.


# rmmod backupdriver
ERROR: Module backupdriver is in use


The solution is to reinstall the latest CDP 2 agent and run buagent -u to unload it first then proceed to uninstalling the CDP2 agent and installing CDP3 agent.
