You should be able to do something like this to remove all of the packages:
yum erase svrcore idm-console-framework

That should remove those packages and all packages which depend on them.

In order to remove all trace of fedora ds, you would need to do 
something like this, after the yum erase:
rm -rf /etc/dirsrv /usr/lib/dirsrv /usr/lib64/dirsrv `find /var -name 
dirsrv -print`

If /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/adm.conf exists, setup-ds-admin.pl will not 
work as you would expect - I don't think it will allow you to change the 
existing admin server port number in that case.

If /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/adm.conf exists, then setup-ds-admin.pl will 
basically allow you to create another instance of directory server and 
register it with the configuration DS.
