On the Windows and Linux platforms, the uninstall executable file consolidates and formalizes the actions required to remove an OpenEdge Command Center server instance. The uninstall file is located in the uninstall subdirectory within the OpenEdge Command Center server installation directory. On Linux, a shortcut to the uninstaller is also placed in the user's home directory ($HOME). On Windows, the OpenEdge Command Center Server Uninstall shortcut is added to the user's Start menu.

Uninstall OpenEdge Command Center server on Windows

To uninstall the OpenEdge Command Center server on the Windows platform:
  1. Navigate to the uninstall directory and locate the Uninstall Progress OpenEdge Command Center Server executable file.
  2. Run the Uninstall Progress OpenEdge Command Center Server file as an administrator.
  3. Follow the instructions in the Uninstall OpenEdge Command Center wizard.
    Note:
    • During the uninstallation process, a Delete Database dialog appears, prompting you to confirm whether to remove the OpenEdge Command Center database. By default, the option is set to No. If you select Yes, all data of the OpenEdge Command Center server, including oecc collection, is removed from the database. Regardless of your choice, the database user account is deleted. However, in high availability configurations, when uninstalling an additional server that does not host the database, the database user account is not deleted.
    • For the server in high availability mode, click Yes only if it is the final remaining active server. If any other servers are still active, deleting the database disrupts their operations.
  4. After the uninstallation is complete, the Uninstall Complete screen displays the message: All items were successfully uninstalled. Click Done to exit.

Alternatively, you can uninstall the server by completing the following steps on the Windows platform:

  1. Select Start, then choose Settings > Apps.
  2. Scroll to and select Progress OpenEdge Command Center Server, then click Uninstall.

  1. Open a command line and navigate to the uninstall subdirectory of the OpenEdge Command Center installation directory. For example:

    • gui—Launches the uninstaller in GUI mode and prompts you for responses before uninstalling.
    • console—Launches the uninstaller in console mode and displays prompts in the console.
    • silent—Launches the uninstaller in silent mode and proceeds with the uninstall using default settings without prompting for any input. Response files are not supported and will be ignored if provided.
    Note:
    • If you do not specify a mode parameter, then the uninstaller is launched in GUI mode.
    • During the uninstallation process, whether in GUI mode or console mode, a Delete Database dialog appears, prompting you to confirm whether to remove the OpenEdge Command Center database. By default, the option is set to No. If you select Yes, all data of the OpenEdge Command Center server, including oecc collection, is removed from the database. Regardless of your choice, the database user account is deleted.
    • For the server in a high availability mode, click Yes only if it is the final remaining active server. If any other servers are still active, deleting the database disrupts their operations.

A log file of the uninstallation process is created in the $HOME directory with the name $HOME/Progress_OpenEdge_Command_Center_Server _Uninstall_mm_dd_yyyy_hh_mm_ss.log.
