Uninstallation

It is possible to uninstall Insights in the case of one-time usage of Insights or usage for a limited time. Insights deinstallation is provided by a transport. The transport is requested through support or OSS. Requesting e-mail has to contain Insights version, information about other Datavard products installed and all provided transport request numbers used for Insights installation in the system. Deinstallation transport has to be imported on all of the systems where Insights is installed. After deinstallation, all data generated by Insights, as well as ABAP and Data Dictionary Objects are deleted.

How to uninstall Insights:

  • First you need delete all services with /dvd/ Namespace. How to delete service:
  1. Go to the transaction /n/IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE, click on the chosen service (you have to click on the technical service name of your service).
  2. Click on ICF node and choose Delete.
  3. Click on Remove system alias.
  4. Then click Delete service.

  • Import the deletion transport.

Note: If you have some other Datavard product, which needs OData or Fiori services, probably after the deletion transport, it was not functional, because the deletion transport delete the node /dvd/.

Note: The deletion transport deletes the Reuse Library, too.
