Uninstalling OpenEdge Management on UNIX
Because OpenEdge Management is associated with (or "glued to") an installed OpenEdge product, uninstalling OpenEdge Management is a two-step process. First, you disassociate ("unglue") OpenEdge Management from OpenEdge, then you remove the OpenEdge Management files.
If you want only to change the association between OpenEdge Management and a particular OpenEdge product, it is not necessary for you to uninstall OpenEdge Management.

See the "Using the Reglue command to change the OpenEdge Management association" section for details.
