  • 1.  Patch Management 8.5 CleanUp

    Posted Jul 23, 2020 10:36 AM
    Where can I find the recommended procedure/s to disable/delete/remove superseded patches (or simply no longer needed patches) from 8.5?

    We're looking to disable unused/unneeded policies, disable the bulletins and delete the updates themselves from the SMP and Package Server.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi cheebus,

    this is covered by https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/162385/clean-up-unused-patch-packages-off-the-n.html

    I strongly suggest to upgrade to the latest version of 8.5 (or at least 8.5 RU1) as this process was conveniently automated there.



    Thanks,
    Dmitri.
