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 the SDO repository application on every standalone server or cluster that you plan to use for one or more of the service integration bus (SIBus) Web services roles as described in Installing and configuring the SDO repository.

If the data source already exists, or there has been a previous broken or partial installation of the SDO repository application, 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 uninstallSdoRepository.jacl script is provided in the app_server_root/bin directory, where app_server_root is the root directory for the installation of IBM WebSphere Application Server. If you choose to run the wsadmin scripting client from another directory, specify the full path to the uninstallSdoRepository.jacl script on the command option. For example:
wsadmin.ext -f app_server_root/bin/uninstallSdoRepository.jacl
where .ext is the file extension .bat for a Windows system, or .sh for a UNIX, Linux or z/OS system.

Here are the install and uninstall pairs, where each uninstall command undoes the action of the related install command. 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.

For configuration of the SDO repository on a standalone server, the -createDb flag tells the install command to create a default (Cloudscape) database and configure it for use with this application server. The -removeDb flag tells the uninstall command to remove the database configuration from the application server, but not to delete the Cloudscape database:
wsadmin -f installSdoRepository.jacl -createDb
wsadmin -f uninstallSdoRepository.jacl -removeDb
Note:
  • 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.
  • To avoid deleting data that you might want to keep, the -removeDb flag does not delete the Cloudscape database. If you are certain that you want to delete the database, you can do so 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.
For installation or removal of the SDO repository application from a standalone server:
wsadmin -f installSdoRepository.jacl
wsadmin -f uninstallSdoRepository.jacl
For installation or removal of the SDO repository application in a network deployment environment, for a deployment manager or a server that is not part of a cluster:
wsadmin -f installSdoRepository.jacl node_name server_name
wsadmin -f uninstallSdoRepository.jacl node_name server_name
For installation or removal of the SDO repository application in a network deployment environment, for a cluster:
wsadmin -f installSdoRepository.jacl -cluster cluster_name
wsadmin -f uninstallSdoRepository.jacl -cluster cluster_name
