Reinstall packages


You can reinstall all the packages that are currently deployed to selected nodes and node groups, including the agent package. This first uninstalls the packages before installing them again. However, you cannot reinstall the DCE agent package on UNIX and Linux nodes from the console. The agent must be removed and reinstalled manually.

To reinstall packages

  1. In the console tree, select the nodes or node groups on which you want to reinstall packages.
  2. Right-click your selection, and then click All Tasksarrow Reinstall/Update.... The Reinstall/Update Node dialog box opens. The reinstall option is already selected.
  3. In the list under Scope, select Packages.
  4. Optional. Select the Ignore missing policies/packages check box. This enables you to reinstall the packages that are available on this management server. If the node inventory contains packages that are not available on this management server, the management server creates a warning in the event log and the job succeeds.
  5. Click OK. The management server creates a deployment job, which reinstalls the packages.
