You use the maintenance wizard to add a component that was once installed or to delete an installed component. The maintenance wizard enables you to reinstall a component using its previous setup information or to uninstall existing products.

To start the maintenance wizard, start the installer from the CD-ROM containing the product that has already been installed. If you attempt to use the same version of installer to overwrite the product, the maintenance wizard starts and displays the Welcome dialog box:

Figure 1-3 Welcome dialog box

The contents of the Welcome dialog box are the same for JP1/Software Distribution Manager and JP1/Software Distribution Client. Choose Modify, Repair, or Remove.

Modify

Choosing Modify and then clicking the Next button displays the Select Manager Type dialog box for JP1/Software Distribution Manager or the Select Components dialog box for JP1/Software Distribution Client.

Modify the manager type or installation components in the displayed dialog box and proceed with installation in the same manner as in the case of new installation. When installation is complete, the Maintenance Complete dialog box is displayed.

Repair

Choose this option to re-install all components that were installed previously.

Choosing Repair and then clicking the Next button displays a dialog box indicating the processing status. When re-installation is complete, the Maintenance Complete dialog box is displayed.

Choosing Remove and then clicking the Next button starts uninstallation. For details about the confirmation dialog box that is displayed during uninstallation, see 1.4 Uninstalling JP1/Software Distribution. When uninstallation is complete, the Maintenance Complete dialog box is displayed.
