Service Registry Post-uninstallation Tasks

In some cases, the uninstaller might not be able to remove some or all of your installation files. To do a final cleanup, remove the ServiceRegistry-base directory and its contents at the following location:

• Solaris OS: /opt/SUNWsrvc-registry

• Linux: /opt/sun/srvc-registry

The directory that contains the Service Registry database, domain, and keystores is not removed when you uninstall the Registry:

• Solaris OS: /var/opt/SUNWsrcv-registry

• Linux: /var/opt/sun/srvc-registsry

You can remove it manually if you want. However, to preserve the database for use in a future installation or release, copy the following directory to another location before you reinstall the Registry, then copy it back after you reinstall:

• Solaris OS: /var/opt/SUNWsrvc-registry/3.0

• Linux: /var/opt/sun/srvc-registry/3.0

For reinstallation, if you made a copy of the Registry database before you installed Service Registry, copy it back after you reinstall. After restoring the database and keystore files (stored in the 3.0 directories), run the following command using platform-specific variants:

.../ant —f build-install.xml appserver.domain.stop export.registryOperatorCert install.cacerts \
appserver.domain.start

This enables existing users to have continued use of the Service Registry Web Console.
