Uninstalling Speech Suite

Best practices:

  • Backup the configuration of each Speech Suite host before removing Speech Suite. This enables using the configurations in the future if you re-install Speech Suite elsewhere. See Backing up and restoring service configurations.
  • Use the installer to remove Speech Suite software. Do not use the Add or Remove programs tool in Windows, or the package manager commands (yum commands). When you remove the entire suite, you remove all components, languages, Vocalizer voice, and Dragon data packs. Only these items remain:

    Item

    Description

    MySQL

    Any components remain intact.

    SQL Server

    Any components remain intact.

    Management Station

    The current Management Station login usernames and passwords, the mserver database, and the audit database (if created) remain intact. (If you re-install Speech Suite, you can reuse these databases.)
