Removing patches

Only patches that can be removed appear on the patch removal page. Only Microsoft patches

including vendor-provided uninstallation patches can be removed, provided these patches were

installed by Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack. Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack
cannot remove configuration fixes or Red Hat patches. Vulnerability and Patch Management Pack

does not perform dependency checking before removing patches. HP recommends extreme care

when removing patches.
To remove patches after they have been applied to systems:

Select Deploy>Vulnerability and Patch Management>Remove Patch.

Select the patches to remove, and click Next.

NOTE:

Manual reboot of the target system might be required to remove certain patches.
