Hello,

Okay, looking at your awips2.repo file, the repo is not enabled (by default the 
awips_install.sh script disables this repo after trying an install so you don't 
accidentally try to update when doing system updates):
enabled=0

So edit that file and enable it:
enabled=1

Then you can try removing the awips2-server group. However, please note that 
removing awips2-server will delete some of the contents in /awips2.

Do you have a separate mount for the /awips2 directory? That might be why you 
can't move the whole directory, there's nothing "AWIPS" specific that you can't 
move that directory. You can try creating a new back-up your contents somewhere 
else - be sure not to back-up data_store or hdf5 because that is a lot of data 
that isn't going to be relevant but can take up a lot of space.
