Reference Guide

● Hard Dependency — Dependency that must be applied in order to be able to apply the update.
● Soft Dependency — Dependency that needs to be applied in order to use certain new features coming with the update.
NOTE: In certain scenarios, for a complete update or upgrade, you must install two and more DUPs. It is possible that for
individual DUPs, you are forced to restart the system, to realize the impact of other installed DUPs.
● When you update a component, if the dependent component is a pre-requisite and it needs a reboot, it is recommended to
reboot the system to update the remaining components.
● When you import components using Import option, if the component has a missing dependency a warning message is
displayed informing you about the missing dependency.
● When you select the Export option, the pre-requisite components are downloaded and copied to the output location.
