Note: Uninstallation does not remove any databases created during installation or configuration.
You must delete these manually if they are no longer required:

- Repository Database(s) - Created during Repository DataSource configuration. Depending on the setup, multiple
repository databases may exist, or the FarmDb may have been reused for the repository.
