7 Uninstalling Oracle AIA

7.1 Overview of Oracle AIA Uninstallation

If you have multiple AIA instances, you must manually uninstall the specific AIA instance that you want to undeploy.

Refer to Section 7.3, "Undeploying a Specific Instance of AIA Foundation Pack Using Manual Steps."

To completely uninstall AIA (which means undeploying all AIA instances and removing AIA Home), then you must undeploy all AIA instances except for one instance and then use the De-installer.

If you have deployed the Foundation Pack Demo, undeploy it before you uninstall Foundation Pack, because it does not get undeployed automatically when you uninstall Foundation Pack.

7.2 Uninstalling Foundation Pack using AIA Deinstaller

To uninstall Foundation Pack using AIA Deinstaller:

1. Navigate to AIAHOME/oui/bin.

2. Launch Deinstaller.

   Follow the launch instructions for your platform. Table 7-1 lists the commands you must use based on your platform.

3. Click Next.

   AIA Deinstaller displays the installed products.

4. Select the instance to be uninstalled by clicking once on the Instance name.

   Note:

   After you select the instance, the deinstaller picks up the server details from the AIAInstallProperties.xml file and prompts the user for the admin username and password for the server in order to confirm deinstall.

5. Click Deinstall.

6. AIA Deinstaller displays a warning message with the following deinstallation options:

   • Deinstall and delete AIA Home directory. To deinstall and delete AIA Home directory, click Yes.

     Note:

     If multiple AIA Instances that are using the same AIA Home exist, then manually undeploy other AIA instances before you delete AIA Home directory using deinstaller.

   • Deinstall without deleting AIA Home directory. To deinstall without deleting the AIA Home directory, click No.

7. Choose one of the options.

8. Click Finish in the Deinstallation Complete screen.
