Upgrading or uninstalling iTX software modules on single machines
Upgrading or uninstalling iTX software modules on
single machines
When you upgrade a single machine in your iTX system, or uninstall iTX software from it, you
run the iTX installer from the installation folder (iTX Suite).
The installer checks each module that is installed on the machine; it notes what components
are in the module, and what their version numbers are. It compares these details with those for
the same module in the installation folder. By doing this, it determines if any action is required.
• If a module in the installation folder contains extra components, or new versions of
installed components, the iTX Installer dialog displays the names of the relevant
components in the action list and specifies the required action (install or update):
• If there are no differences between the two sets of components, the iTX Installer
dialog displays a blank action list.
Installed components that are current appear in the no-action list.
You can move components from one list to the other by selecting them and clicking Action or
No Action. If you move installed components into the action list, the installer automatically
specifies "uninstall" as the required action.
When there are components in the action list, the dialog displays the Continue button. Clicking
the button causes the installer to perform the specified actions. In this way, you can use the
installer to update or uninstall a module.
When there are no components in the action list, the dialog displays the Finish button. Clicking
this closes the dialog.
