Uninstalling EPM System Clients

You can uninstall Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System clients using the uninstall option in the client installers.

To uninstall EPM System clients:

  1. From the client installer folder, open the subfolder for the client installer and then double-click the client installer file name.

  2. Proceed through the installation wizard, selecting Remove, and then click Finish when the uninstallation is complete.

Note:

If you are uninstalling multiple clients that are installed on the same machine, or if a client is installed on the same machine as an EPM System server product, launch the uninstaller using the DELETE_COMMONS=false command line parameter. See Performing a Silent Client Uninstallation.

See "Installing EPM System Clients " in Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide for details on client installers.

Performing a Silent Client Uninstallation

You use the EPM System client installers with the command line parameter /x to uninstall EPM System clients.

To perform silent uninstallation of an EPM System client other than Oracle Essbase Client or Oracle Essbase Administration Services Console, use this command:

installer file name /x /s /v"/qn /l*v log file path and name"

For example, this command uninstalls Oracle Smart View for Office and creates the log c:/temp/SilentInstall.log:

SmartView.exe /x /s /v"/qn /l*v c:/temp/SilentInstall.log""

To perform a silent uninstallation of Essbase Client or Administration Services Console, use this command:

installer file name /x /s /v"/qn DELETE_COMMONS=value /l*v log file path and name"

where value is true or false.

Essbase Client and Administration Services Console share some common components. With the parameter DELETE_COMMONS=true, the uninstaller removes these common components. If multiple clients are installed on the same machine, or if the client is installed on the same machine as an EPM System server product, you must use DELETE_COMMONS=false if you want to delete only one of the clients.
