Installing and managing software over the network

Removing software

In the Software Manager, select the unneeded products, components, packages, and patches from the list of installed software. Then, from the Software menu, select Remove Software.

To leave the software loaded, click on More Options in the Confirm Selected Software window. Then specify Leave Loaded, and click on Remove. (Removing a patch and leaving it loaded corresponds to the Rollback Patch operation in earlier versions of the Software Manager.)

When you start to remove a piece of software, the Software Manager checks to see whether it has any dependent components or packages and notifies you of any dependencies. If dependencies are found, you can either continue the removal procedure or cancel.
