Uninstall Patches
Arcserve Backup Patch Manager provides the capability to uninstall successfully installed patches and updates for the product selected. This uninstall function can only be triggered manually from the user interface (GUI), and not automatically scheduled.
When triggered, Arcserve Backup Patch Manager will first check if the specified patch has any dependent patches that need to be uninstalled first. You can only uninstall a patch that has no dependency to other installed patches.
- If all dependent patches have already been uninstalled, then the uninstall process will continue.
- If a patch has dependency to another installed patch, an error message will be displayed indicating that the dependency patch must first be uninstalled and the uninstall process will not continue. Dependant patches are not force uninstalled.
The Patches Installed History Report will also be updated with the "Uninstalled" status.
