How to Deinstall FMW Oracle Home Post Upgrade To 12.2.1.2 ?
Last updated on APRIL 21, 2017
Applies to:
Oracle Fusion Middleware - Version 12.2.1.2.0 and laterInformation in this document applies to any platform.
Goal
Upgrade Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure to the 12.2.1.2
As the Upgrade Guide clearly states, "If you are upgrading from a previous 12c release (12.1.3.0, 12.2.1.0 or 12.2.1.1), then you must install the 12c (12.2.1.2) distributions into a new Oracle home. Do not attempt to reuse the existing Oracle home for this upgrade. Upgrading to 12c (12.2.1.2) is not a patch release."
Also from Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c Release 2 (12.2) Announcements (Doc ID 2067900.1)
“ This is a full installation with an out-of-place upgrade from previous releases. This does not update existing installations. “
So it is required to install the 12.2.1.2 in a new Oracle home.
However after completing the upgrade process successfully , is it required to maintain 2 Oracle Homes OR deinstall the older Oracle home (12.1.3.0, 12.2.1.0 or 12.2.1.1) and if so what is the procedure to do so?
