Uninstallation

Use the uninstallation wizard to remove Replication Agent and its related components.

You can run the uninstallation wizard in GUI mode, console mode, or silent mode; however, Sybase recommends that you use GUI mode.

Note: The uninstaller removes only those files that were loaded from the installation media. Some Sybase files, such as log and configuration files, are left intact for administrative purposes. jre and other installed directories are also not removed by the uninstaller. You must manually remove these directories.

Before uninstalling, consider:

If two or more Sybase products have been installed using the same installation technology such as InstallAnywhere or InstallShield Multiplatform installer , the uninstallation program does not remove the products’ shared components until all the Sybase products are uninstalled. However, for Sybase products that have been installed in the same directory using different installation technologies, files that share the same name may be removed or overwritten. Sybase recommends that you use the same installation technology to install into or uninstall from a shared installation directory.

Warning! If you have installed Replication Agent into a directory where other Sybase products have been installed using an installation program other than InstallAnywhere, do not uninstall Replication Agent or the other Sybase products. Doing so may remove components shared by Sybase products and affect their operation.
The uninstallation program removes only the files and directories for the products and features that you select in the uninstallation wizard. However, some files (such as log and configuration files) are left intact for administrative purposes, even if you uninstall all of the products and features.

Note: The uninstallation program does not remove the root installation directory (%SYBASE% or $SYBASE) or the SYSAM-2_0 directory and its subdirectories.
