8 Uninstalling Pricing Design Center

This chapter describes how to uninstall Oracle Communications Pricing Design Center (PDC).

Uninstalling PDC

You use Oracle Universal Installer to uninstall PDC. You can also uninstall other components of the PDC product using Oracle Universal Installer.

Note:

Oracle Universal Installer does not uninstall the PDC patch. You can restore the previous release installation by replacing the patch set directories using the backup copy of your previous release installation. See "Restoring the Previous Installation" for more information.

To uninstall PDC:

  1. Go to the temp_dir/pdc/Disk1/install directory, where temp_dir is the directory in which you unzipped the PDC software.

  2. Run the following command:

    ./runInstaller.sh

    The Welcome screen appears.

  3. Click Deinstall Products.

    The Inventory screen appears.

  4. Select the PDC installation name that you entered during PDC installation.

  5. Click Remove.

    The Confirmation screen appears.

  6. Click Yes.

    The User Input screen appears.

  7. In the WebLogic Administrator user password field, enter the password for the WebLogic Server domain administrator user.

    See Table 2-4, "Pricing Design Center WebLogic Server Connection Information" for more information.

    Note:

    Even if you enter an incorrect WebLogic Administrator password, the uninstallation is completed; however, it is not a clean uninstallation and you cannot log in to Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console for 30 minutes. In this case, you must perform manual cleanup tasks after uninstalling PDC. See PDC Release Notes.

  8. Click OK.

    The selected components are uninstalled.

    The Inventory screen appears.

  9. Click Close.

The Installer removes all of the files except the log files. You must delete the log files manually.
