Sometimes, the already published patches are deprecated by the vendor
due to various reasons, such as performance issues with the given fix,
vulnerability, and so on. Even if a deprecated patch is already associated
with a job, Patch Management does not deploy such deprecated patches.
To ensure that no discrepancy is caused in the number of patches that
are applied on an asset as a part of a deployment job, you must remove
the deprecated patches. A job that contains one or more deprecated patches
is visually denoted with .
To remove disabled patches from a job, simply click the and then click Fix
Job. Although optional, we recommend that you remove the deprecated
patches before the job is deployed.
Alternatively, you can click Quick Actions > View Details > Patches to a fix a job that contains one or more deprecated patches.
