    the description does not fit to the installation instructions. Please adapt the documentation and the deletion of libs to the installation.

    Of course, this also applies to the 1908 documentation.

      Hello, Stefan!

      I suppose you have seen the reply to the same comment in 1905. Just in case, you have not, I am duplicating it here:

      The steps provided in this topic work if you perform integration, and then you remove integration. If after integration with Remedy SSO, you performed some additional steps, such as integration with some other products, you must perform some additional manual steps.

      This topic is for general understanding of the process of removing integration with Remedy SSO, and may not fit specific use cases.

      We are not recommending to delete libs from the  <Mid_Tier>/WEB-INF/lib because these libs can be used by some other integrated products with which you do not want to remove the integration.
