Deleting Oracle Database 19c RAC from Nodes on Linux
Deleting Instances from Oracle RAC Databases
Use DBCA in silent mode to delete a database instance from a node, execute on the remaining nodes.
~]$ dbca -silent -deleteInstance -nodeList oracle19crac03 -gdbName coco -instanceName coco3 -sysDBAUserName sys -sysDBAPassword oracle [WARNING] [DBT-19203] The Database Configuration Assistant will delete the Oracle instance and its associated OFA directory structure. All information about this instance will be deleted.

Look at the log file "/u01/app/oracle/cfgtoollogs/dbca/coco/coco.log"for further details.
Removing Oracle RAC
If there is a listener in the Oracle RAC home on the node you are deleting, then you must disable and stop it before deleting the Oracle RAC software.
