Uninstalling Oracle9i (Optional)

If you choose not to uninstall Oracle, proceed to Unlinking the Oracle Binary From VERITAS Libraries.

If you choose to uninstall Oracle9i, use the Oracle runInstaller utility. Run the utility on each node if Oracle9i is installed locally. If Oracle9i is installed on a cluster file system, run the utility once.

1. Log in as oracle user.
2. Set the DISPLAY variable.

   If you use the Bourne Shell (sh or ksh):

   
     $ DISPLAY=host:0.0;export DISPLAY

   If you use the C Shell (csh or tcsh):

   
     $ setenv DISPLAY host:0.0
3. Run the Oracle9i runInstaller utility:
     $ /cdrom/Disk1/runInstaller

   Select the option to uninstall the Oracle9i software. Refer to the Oracle9i documentation for details on this utility.

4. If necessary, remove Oracle9i from the other nodes.
