Deinstall old Oracle binaries after database upgrade?

edited Jul 12, 2024 4:46PM in Database Administration (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered ✓

Hi All,

We would like to deinstall old Oracle binaries after upgrading to Oracle 19c on Windows server without deleting datafiles and oracle database service.

We have tried to uninstall using "%ORACLE_HOME%\deinstall\deinstall.bat" but it also removed datafiles of which that's not what we wanted to achieve.

E:\app\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\deinstall>deinstall.bat
Checking for required files and bootstrapping ...
Please wait ...

610 File(s) copied
1 file(s) copied.
1 file(s) copied.
Location of logs C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\

Kind regards,

ZM

Howdy, Stranger!
