DUP Dependency

Starting DRM 1.9, DRM supports DUP Dependency. This feature displays the relationship among different DUPs. Dependency exists when a DUP depends on another DUP for execution. This feature helps to determine the order in which the DUPs have to be installed. There are two types of dependencies: Hard Dependency and Soft Dependency. In case, the component has dependency, there is one > symbol displayed against that DUP. To view the dependent component(s), you need to expand the control.
  • Hard Dependency — Dependency that must be applied in order to apply the correct update. Once you select the primary component to be installed, by default these components are selected and the fields are greyed out.
  • Soft Dependency — Dependency that needs to be applied in order to use certain new features coming with the update. You have the option to select this component as these are not mandatory.
  • NOTE: In certain scenarios, for a complete update or upgrade, you have to install two and more DUPs. In such scenarios, sometimes you have to restart the system to complete the update of previously installed DUPs.
