Issue/Introduction

I am running out of diskspace on my Scalability Server, can i just delete the individual Patch Manager packages?

Environment

Client Automation

Patch Manager

Scalability Server

Cause

Lack of disk space.

Resolution

You can use the option to "Schedule Removal Job" to remove Packages staged on a Scalability Server. This "Item Procedure" can be used for any Patch Manager package, but if IntelliRollup packages are used then it must not be used for individual Microsoft Security patch packages.  The "Schedule Removal Job" can be run against the "IntelliRollup packages" which will automatically take care of any dependencies when individual Microsoft Patches are included in multiple "IntelliRollup packages".
