Hi all,

I installed the patch 9.2.0.6.0 and it created a new home.
Now i want to Deinstall this home. But somehow it does not allow me to
deinstall. What can be the reason.

Thanks
jyothi

a) on what platform?
b) what does 'somehow it does not allow me to deinstall' mean? What do
we get if we guess correctly what happened?
c) the patch doesn't create a new home out of it's own
d) did you read the installation instructions or did you just hit a
button somewhere?

Use the OUI to remove the home.
