Deinstall GoldenGate 12.2

I always like to know how to remove software installation in the event I am not happy with how it was installed.

GoldenGate Home is at /u01/app/oracle/12.2/ggs01

Thinking of may be using the same directory structures as Grid Infrastructure, i.e. /u01/app/12.2.0.1/ggs01 with full release version.

oracle@arrow:pooh:/u01/app/oracle/12.2/ggs01
$ ls -ld deinstall/
drwxr-xr-x. 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Apr  4 00:24 deinstall/

oracle@arrow:pooh:/u01/app/oracle/12.2/ggs01
$ cd deinstall/

oracle@arrow:pooh:/u01/app/oracle/12.2/ggs01/deinstall
$ ls
deinstall.sh

oracle@arrow:pooh:/u01/app/oracle/12.2/ggs01/deinstall
$ ./deinstall.sh

ALERT: Ensure all the processes running from the current Oracle Home are shutdown prior to running this software uninstallation script.

Proceed with removing Oracle GoldenGate home: /u01/app/oracle/12.2/ggs01 (yes/no)? [no]
yes
