Remove a Deployment

Learn about removing a deployment.

Before Removing the Deployment

Removing a deployment is not the same as removing a Service Manager. When you remove a deployment, it doesn't imply that the Service Manager would also need to be removed as there could be multiple deployments added to the same Service Manager.

You can remove a deployment using the Oracle GoldenGate Configuration Assistant (OGGCA) wizard.

Note:

When you remove a deployment or uninstall Oracle GoldenGate MA, the system does not automatically stop processes. As a result, you may have to stop processes associated with the deployment and you must clean files manually.

Before removing a deployment, stop the deployment, its associated microservices, and ER processes.

Start OGGCA to Remove Deployment

To start the deployment removal process, follow these steps:

Run the OGGCA wizard from the following location:
```
cd $OGG_HOME/bin

./OGGCA.sh
```
Select Existing Service Manager from the Select Service Manager Options screen. Click Next.
Select Remove Existing Oracle GoldenGate Deployment from the Configuration Options screen. Click Next.
Select the deployment you need to remove from the Deployment Name list box.
Select the Delete Deployment Files from Disk check box if you want to remove all the deployment files (including configuration files) from the host server. These configuration files are usually located in the /etc and /conf directories.
Enter the Administration account user name and password for the Service Manaager administrator.
Enter the Administration account user name and password for the Deployment administrator click Next.
On the Summary page, see the list of settings that would be deleted with the deployment and click Finish.
