Setting up the Software Portal
About deleting a published software resource
About deleting a published software resource
This task is a step in the process for implementing the Software Portal.
See
"Implementing the Software Portal"
You can also publish Managed Software Delivery policies to the Software Portal.
Warning: If the software resource that you publish has dependencies on other
software, the dependency software is not delivered as a result of a user request.
Instead, create and publish a Managed Software Delivery policy for that software
so that the dependencies are installed.
See
"Adding a Managed Software Delivery policy to the Software Portal"
on page 179.

You can delete a software resource that is published to the Software Portal.
However, you cannot delete a software resource that has references. A reference
is an association between the software resource and another item in the Symantec
Management Platform.
When a software resource is published to the Software Portal, a reference to its
publishing settings is created. The publishing settings include the permissions,
software name, and software description. Because these references are saved with
the software resource, you can temporarily un-publish the software from the
Software Portal without losing its settings.
