How can I uninstall Management UI but not the data DSAs?

Products

• CA Directory

Issue/Introduction

Based on documentation, we should not create new DSA on CA Directory Management UI host. Please refer below

    

Installing CA Directory Management UI

 

It says

• The DXServer that gets installed along with the Management UI, is only used by the Management UI internally. Hence, you should not create new dsa's on Management UI dxserver.
• Management UI should not be installed in a machine which already has DXServer installed.

In case you have production data DSAs which are running on the same machine with the Management UI the you need to separate Management UI from them. How can we uninstall Management UI but not the existing production data DSAs?
