To remove the SFDB repository

1. Change directories to the location of the local lookup information for the Oracle SID.

   For example:

   # cd /var/vx/vxdba/$ORACLE_SID

2. Identify the SFDB repository file and any associated links:

   For example:

   # ls -al

   lrwxrwxrwx   1 oracle   oinstall      26 Jul 21 13:58 .sfdb_rept -> \
   /ora_data1/TEST/.sfdb_rept

   # cd /ora_data1/TEST

   Follow the symlink of .sfdb_rept.

3. Remove the repository directory containing the repository file and all backups.

   For example:

   # rm -rf .sfdb_rept

4. Remove the local lookup directory for the Oracle SID:

   # cd /var/vx/vxdba

   # rm -rf $ORACLE_SID

   This completes the removal of the SFDB repository.
