The Update Manager provides dependency management for fixes.

When you select fixes to install from Empower or a fix image, the Update Manager automatically determines whether related fixes are required for other products. For example, a fix you apply to Monitor might require a related fix to Integration Server. If the products for the related required fixes are in the same installation directory as the selected fixes, the Update Manager installs them automatically. If they are not, the Update Manager lists them at the end of the fix installation so you can install the related required fixes yourself. You must install the related required fixes as soon possible, or your products might not work properly together.

When you select fixes to include in a fix image, the Update Manager automatically determines whether related fixes are required for other products. Software AG recommends that you include the related required fixes in the image.

When you select fixes to uninstall from a product installation, the Update Manager automatically lets you know if other fixes depend on the selected fixes. You can choose either to not uninstall the required fixes, or to also uninstall the dependent fixes.
