Uninstalling ALSM

If you have installed multiple instances of ALSM, there will only be one entry in the Add/Remove Programs panel, likely the most recent one. You can find the installation directory and version info for the instance the Add/Remove entry is referring to by clicking on the Support Info link for that entry.

Note: If you uninstall a container, you should also unregister it in the Management Console.

Uninstalling from Multiple Installations

If you want to uninstall a particular instance ALSM, whether it has a Add/Remove Programs entry or not, you can go into the installation_base_directory/UninstallerData and run the executable (.exe or for Unix, .bin) to launch the uninstaller. The uninstaller Introduction panel displays the base installation directory of the instance you are uninstalling. You can use this directory to confirm the instance you are uninstalling. The rest of the process is identical to an uninstallation launched from the Add/Remove Programs Panel.

Ensure that WebLogic Server is running when you uninstall ALSM. WebLogic Server will shut down the Management Foundation for you when you run the uninstaller.

To uninstall ALSM from a Windows system

  1. Shut down ALSM if it is running.
  2. Choose Start > Control Panel.
  3. Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
  4. Select ALSM and click Change/Remove.
  5. Follow the instructions in the Uninstallation Wizard.
Note: If you used the default settings in the Database Setup screen, the databases will be cleaned up during the uninstallation of ALSM. If you modified the default settings, the databases will not be removed by the ALSM Uninstaller. You must manually remove the databases, especially if you intend to reinstall ALSM.
