What names were you giveing the various operations packages are installed with the name of a file that happens to contain an rpm package. By convention the file name is similar to the packagename. packages are removed or queried via the package name. try : rpm -qa|grep IBMJava to see what the package name really is and use that to erase it or you can force the install with --force I believe but if I have ever actually done that I have slept since then.
