Howto remove / install the ePo-agent (framework services)

The McAfee Framework (FW) Services is responseable for 2 things:

- The update part of the McAfee product being installed
- The ePolicy Orchestrator Agent

When installing the FW for:

- updatepart: you'll need to reinstall / repair the product when there's no ePo in the network
- epoagent: use Framepkg.exe from the epo-server

Manually: updater: framepkg.exe /install=updater
epoagent: framepkg.exe /install=agent

When the FS won't work, remove it:

- updater: frminst /remove=agent
- epoagent: frminst /remove=updater
- when above options won't fix the problem: frminst /forceuninstall

Install it back again with the above mentioned method.
