Removing ACE Software from Your Computer
Removing an ACE bundle or the Quality Pack from your sys-
tem can lead to unexpected consequences, including a non-func-
tional or partially functioning operating system. This is true
even if you have installed the software on an older-model work-
station that does not require the ACE software in order to run.
The ACE bundles and Quality Packs are collections of patches.
As such, they interact with each other, and also with patches that
you load individually on your system. You, the system adminis-
trator, should not remove one of these bundles unless you thor-
oughly understand the HP-UX 10.x patch program and the
limitations of the SD-UX tools when loading, replacing, or delet-
ing patches from a system.
If you choose to remove an ACE bundle or Quality Pack from
your system, first make a backup copy of your file system, so that
you can roll back to a known good system in case you experience
problems with the software removal process. After you complete
the backup, remove the software following the guidelines in the
SD-UX documentation and the HP-UX 10.x Patch Program white
paper.
