The SDO repository uninstall script

Use this script to uninstall a Service Data Objects (SDO) repository that was previously installed, or failed to install correctly.

You install an SDO repository for use with the service integration bus Web services enablement as described in Installing the SDO repository. If the data source already exists, or there has been a previous broken or partial installation of the SDO repository, the installSdoRepository.jacl script fails to complete and configuration changes are not saved. In these cases, you need to run the uninstallSdoRepository.jacl script. This script continues when it finds unexpected results, so it can clean up a broken or partial installation.

The uninstall script is almost a mirror of the install script. Here are the install and uninstall pairs, where each uninstall command undoes the action of the related install command.

-createDb flag tells the install command to create a default (Cloudscape) database, and the -removeDb flag tells the uninstall command to remove an associated default (Cloudscape) database. If you omit this flag, the uninstall command removes the SDO repository application without removing the associated database:
wsadmin -f installSdoRepository.jacl
wsadmin -f uninstallSdoRepository.jacl

wsadmin -f installSdoRepository.jacl -createDb
wsadmin -f uninstallSdoRepository.jacl -removeDb
Note:
  • The -removeDb flag only deletes the database configuration in the application server created by the -createDb flag on the installer. It does not delete the database itself. This is to avoid accidentally deleting data that you might want to keep. If you are certain that you want to delete the Cloudscape database, you can delete it manually. A Cloudscape database is a directory on the file system. The one created by the installer with the -createDb flag is in the profile_root/databases/SdoRepDb directory, where profile_root is the directory in which profile-specific information is stored. If you do not delete the database and you try to install again with the -createDb flag, the install fails stating that the SdoRepDb directory already exists.
  • If you did not use -createDb on the installer, because you had already configured a Cloudscape database for some other purpose, then you should not use the -removeDb flag on the uninstaller.
  • If you attempt to uninstall with a different set of arguments to those used by the installer, you might find that the uninstall does not remove everything or that it displays warnings when it tries to remove non-existent settings.
