Introduction:
Clusterware de-installation can be made in the case you want to rebuilt your entire cluster or simply convert your RAC database to a single instance database.
The procedure is straightforward and can be accomplished in a few minutes.
In the following example, we have 7 node cluster running. Each node has its own grid infrastructure home and oracle database home.
Procedure:
1- First Stop all databases and resources running on all nodes of the cluster.

############# ORACLE DEINSTALL & DECONFIG TOOL END #############
-bash-3.2$ You have to run the above commands on each node of the cluster. Note here the use of ì-lastnodeî option for the node 1 of the cluster.
3- Check the de-installation procedure:
- Verify the above log files on each node.
- Verify /etc/inittab file on each node if it contains the ohasd string. This entry must be removed by the above deinstall commands.
- Verify there is no ora or d.bin processes running (ps -edf | grep ora and ps-edf | grep d.bin). If you they still you can manually kill them using (kill -9 pid).
- Verify under the directory /etc/oracle/
all olr.loc files have been renamed to .orig by the above deinstall commands:
view plaincopy to clipboardprint? -bash-3.2$ cd /etc/oracle/ -bash-3.2$ ls -rtl total 0 -rw-r–r– 1 root root 0 Oct 4 18:41 olr.loc.orig -rw-r–r– 1 root root 0 Oct 4 18:41 ocr.loc.orig
If all the above check are ok. You can manually remove the files under $GRID_HOME directory (rm -rf *).
