Renewing and Recovering Failed Installations

If an installation order has failed for one or more target computers, you can clean up the failed job using an uninstall procedure registered for that library item.

You can renew a failed installation rather than recover it if:

Note: When renewing a job container the property "Ignore cascading install of dependent packages" is automatically checked and disabled for edit. The reason for this is to make sure the renewed job container includes the exact same jobs as the failed job container. If the original job container failed because of a missing procedure dependency, the renewal of that job container will ignore the procedure dependency and attempt to install the depending software package. This will only happen if the procedure is physically missing. If the cascaded procedure exists and simply fails to install, a renewal will include it.
