Components that can be configured to use Web Server as web container: Access Manager, Communications Express, Delegated Administrator, and Instant Messaging.. Also Application Server Load Balancing Plugin (if Application Server uses Web Server as its web container). 

Pre-Uninstallation Tasks 

Make sure you can provide the administrator password for the web container. 

Post-Uninstallation Tasks 

To preserve configuration data, back up the Administrative Server and Web Server instance directories under the installation location.
