Delete Update Rings
How to delete one or more Update Rings for a Patch My PC Cloud deployment
Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud
For a Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud deployment with Update Rings enabled, you can either:
Note
All deletion tasks for Update Rings are performed from the Assignments tab of the respective deployment.
Delete all Update Rings
To delete all Update Rings for a deployment:
Edit the relevant deployment and navigate to the Assignments tab.
If you want to delete a single Update Ring, use the Delete a Single Update Ring process. To delete all Update Rings for this deployment, click Remove all Rings.
On the Move Assignments or Delete dialog box, click Move to remove the Update Rings but keep all the existing assignments.
Note
Clicking Delete will delete any existing assignments but not the deployment itself.
The Update Rings are removed and any existing assignments are kept.
Click Save to save your changes.
Important
As removing all Update Rings disables Update Ring functionality for this deployment (which could result in unintended results), the "<deployment_name>" Deployment Summary is shown detailing the impact of your proposed change. For example, this version of the app will be deployed immediately to all of the following assignments without any of the delays enforced by using Update Rings.
Note
If the existing deployment had different versions applied to different assignments, we use the version that was applied to the lowest delay ring before the deployment was edited.
Click Cancel to return to the Assignments tab to make any required changes, or click Confirm to save your changes. The Deployments node is displayed along with the Success – Edited <deployment_name> notification.
Tip
If you edit the deployment and click More Info, you will see the tabs representing the Update Rings are no longer present.
Delete a Single Update Ring
To delete a Single Update Ring:
Navigate to the Assignments page of the deployment.
Click the red X beside the Update Ring you want to delete.
Note
Deleting an Update Ring also deletes any assignments controlled by that ring. If you want to keep the assignment, drag and drop it to another ring before you delete the ring.
The ring and any assignments it contains are deleted.
Click Save to save your changes.
As you’ve removed an Update Ring and it’s assignments, the "<deployment_name>" Deployment Summary is shown detailing the impact of your proposed change. For example, by deleting the 7-Zip Pilot +7 Days ring, this app will not be deployed to the 03 - Patching - Production - All - 7 Days Entra ID group.
Click Cancel to return to the Assignments tab to make any required changes, or click Confirm to save your changes. The Deployments node is displayed along with the Success – Edited <deployment_name> notification.
Tip
If you edit the deployment and click More Info, you will see the tab representing the deleted Update Ring is no longer present.
