This chapter describes how to uninstall Oracle Communications Converged Application Server and its components.
To uninstall Converged Application Server components in GUI mode:
Go to the Oracle_home/oui/bin directory, and enter the following in a command window:
./deinstall.sh
If you have multiple Oracle products installed in your Oracle Inventory directory (oraInventory), the Distribution to Uninstall screen appears.
Perform the following to specify the Oracle product to uninstall:
From the Select Distribution to Uninstall list, select the software you want to uninstall. For example, select Oracle Communications Converged Application Server~7.1.0.0.0.
Click Uninstall.
From the Welcome screen, click Next.
The Deinstallation Summary screen appears.
Verify that the list of feature sets to uninstall is correct.
To save the information to a response file so you can uninstall the components later, click Save Response File and specify the name and location of the response file.
Click Deinstall.
The Deinstallation Progress screen appears, and a progress bar indicates the status of the uninstallation process.
When the uninstallation process is complete, click Next.
The Deinstallation Complete screen appears.
Click Finish.
The uninstaller exits.
This section describes how to uninstall Converged Application Server components in silent mode on all platforms.
Use silent mode to uninstall duplicate installations on multiple machines. In silent mode, you create and use a response_uninistall.rsp configuration file, and then specify it as a parameter at the command line. The program does not display any options during the uninstallation process.
To uninstall Converged Application Server components in silent mode:
Create a text file on your target system.
Add the following contents to your file:
[ENGINE]
#DO NOT CHANGE THIS.
Response File Version=1.0.0.0.0
[GENERIC]
#This will be blank when there is nothing to be de-installed in distribution level
SELECTED_DISTRIBUTION=Oracle Communications Converged Application Server~7.1.0.0.0
#The oracle home location. This can be an existing Oracle Home or a new Oracle Home
ORACLE_HOME=Oracle_home
where SELECTED_DISTRIBUTION is set to the component to uninstall. For Converged Application Server, set SELECTED_DISTRIBUTION to Oracle Communications Converged Application Server~7.1.0.0.0.
Save the file with the name response_uninstall.rsp.
Go to the Oracle_home/oui/bin directory and enter the following in a command window:
./deinstall.sh -silent -responseFile ResponseFile
where ResponseFile is the full path and name of the response_uninstall.rsp file. For example, Oracle_home/oui/bin/response_uninstall.rsp.
The uninstallation process completes with no prompts.
If the uninstallation procedure completes successfully, you see a response similar to the following:
