Configuration Data and User Data |
All configuration data, user data and UI customizations remain after uninstallation. Communications Express files are maintained in two locations: Package Installation by default: Solaris OS: /opt/SUNWuwc Linux: /opt/sun/uwc Application Deployment created by default during configuration: Solaris OS: /var/opt/SUNWuwc Linux: /var/opt/sun/uwc When you uninstall Communications Express, the uninstaller removes the data from only the package installation location. The data at application deployment location is still present. You can access the application from application deployment location. However, all configuration data and UI customizations will be overwritten during re-configuration. User data remains after re-configuration. |

Configuration Data and User Data |
If you are uninstalling the Directory Server instance hosting the configuration directory, the configuration directory information is removed during uninstallation. If you are uninstalling the Directory Server instance hosting user data, the Directory Server LDAP database is removed during uninstallation. Caution: To avoid loss of data, make sure to back up Directory Server information before uninstalling. Directory Server has several tools and utilities to backup Directory Server and migrate configuration data. Refer to Directory Server documentation at http://docs.sun.com/coll/DirectoryServer_05Q4 for more information. Caution: You do not receive a warning before proceeding with uninstallation of your configuration directory (containing configuration information under the o=NetscapeRoot suffix). If you uninstall a centralized configuration directory that other directories rely on for configuration information, you cannot subsequently administer those directories. |

The Registry configuration process installs the Registry database and server keystore in the following directory:
Solaris OS: /var/opt/SUNWsoar
Linux: /var/opt/sun/SUNWsoar
The directory is not removed when the Service Registry is uninstalled. This allows you to preserve the database for use in a future installation or release if you want To do so, copy the /var/opt/SUNWsoar/3.0 directory (on Solaris OS) or /var/opt/sun/SUNWsoar/3.0 (on Linux) to another location before you reinstall the Registry, then copy it back after you reinstall.
