In this post, I am going to demonstrate step by step approach to remove SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise ( Sybase ) 16 from Linux host.
As a part of prerequisites kindly Stop all ASE services before instantiate uninstall.
Login as SYBASE user in order to uninstall sybase:
[root@Centsrv01 ASESuite]# su - sybase
Change directory to ‘/opt/sybase/sybuninstall/ASESuite’ and instantiate ‘uninstall’ as below. And follow the instruction and provide the inputs as needed in order to remove SAP ASE.
Uninstallation logs are as follows:
-bash-4.1$ cd /opt/sybase/sybuninstall/ASESuite
-bash-4.1$ ./uninstall Graphical installers are not supported by the VM. The console mode will be used instead... =============================================================================== SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise (created with InstallAnywhere) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Preparing CONSOLE Mode Uninstallation... =============================================================================== Uninstall SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise ---------------------------------------- About to uninstall...

you want to delete all of these files? (Y/N): Y =============================================================================== Uninstall Complete ------------------ Some items could not be removed. -bash-4.1$
Note:
Remove additional files manually that you have created or modified after Sybase installation.
In my case, I have created “sybase” directory in /var/ and /opt/.
-bash-4.1$ cd /opt/ -bash-4.1$ rm -rf sybase/ -bash-4.1$ cd /var/ -bash-4.1$ rm -rf sybase/
Congratulations! SAP ASE is now completely removed from Linux host.
Thanks,
Stay Tune. 🙂
