Uninstalling the Content Repository
  Content Repository
The content repository includes an uninstall script,
sql/content-drop.sql.  This script does two things:
  - Drops the attribute storage tables for all content types you have
      defined.
  
- Drops the general tables for the content repository.
The uninstall script does not do the following:
  - It does not delete rows from the acs_objects
      table.  Many other tables reference the object_id
      column in this table, so there is the possibility that the
      uninstall script will encounter foreign key reference errors.
  
- It does not delete types from the
      acs_object_types table.  As for objects themselves, it
      is impossible for an automatic script to properly handle
      disposal of all foreign key references.
Because of what the uninstall script does not do, it is only
appropriate for removing the content repository in preparation for
removing the entire ACS Objects data model.  If you wish to
upgrade an existing installation and cannot afford to lose your data,
you must run an upgrade script rather than uninstalling the entire
data model.
