Sun Java System Access Manager Policy Agent 2.2 Guide for BEA WebLogic Server/Portal 8.1 SP4

ProcedureTo Prepare to Uninstall Agent for BEA WebLogic Server/Portal 8.1 SP4: Console Task

Before you uninstall the agent for BEA WebLogic Server/Portal 8.1 SP4, perform the task described in this section to remove the Agent Authentication Provider that was configured after the installation of the agent.

A few scenarios, besides the task of uninstalling the agent, can necessitate, or at least be benefitted by, the removal of the Agent Authentication. Therefore, this task is described in another location within this guide where the task is not part of the uninstallation process. See, Removing the Agent Authenticator From BEA WebLogic Server/Portal 8.1 SP4.
