Uninstalling SummitPSA

SummitPSA is removed with standard Docker Compose commands run from its install directory.

Stop the application

To stop the stack while keeping all data, run from the install directory (default /opt/summitpsa):

cd /opt/summitpsa
docker compose down

This stops and removes the app and database containers but leaves the named volumes (and therefore your data) intact, so you can bring it back up later.

Remove everything, including data

Warning: the next step permanently deletes your database and all uploads. Back up first if there is any chance you will need the data.

To also delete the data volumes, bring the stack down with volume removal, then remove the install directory:

cd /opt/summitpsa
docker compose down -v
cd /
rm -rf /opt/summitpsa

Clean up the proxy and image

• Remove the reverse-proxy configuration that pointed at 127.0.0.1:8001.
• Optionally remove the pulled application and MariaDB images with docker image rm to reclaim disk space.

There is no separate uninstall script — these Compose commands fully remove the stack the installer created.
