Netra j 2.0 Administrator's Guide

To Remove Packages or Patches


Note -

The Software Management module cannot remove a package if there is another package on the system that requires its presence. The module attempts to remove packages in the order which they are displayed, and since this may not reflect the dependency order, the removal of a core package may fail even if the packages that depend upon it are also removed. If this happens, re-select the packages that failed and remove them again.


  1. From the Main Administration page, under "System Administration," click Software Management.

    The Software Management Administration page is displayed.

  2. Under "Remove," click Packages or Patches.

  3. Complete the form using the information in Table 6-13.
