When packages are updated and the Create backup option is enabled, a backup of the current package is created and stored in a backup directory in the working package directory. This allows you to roll back to the previous level if the current package does not perform appropriately in your environment. (See Section 3.5.3, Rolling Back Packages.)
If the current package performs appropriately in your environment, you can commit the package, which frees up disk space by deleting the files in the backup directory. If your hosts have limited disk space, NetIQ recommends that you commit the packages on all hosts before performing the next update.
On the home page of the console, click Hosts.
In the navigation pane, select the domain or the host where you want to commit packages.
Click Commit Domain Packages or Commit Packages in the task pane.
Select the packages from the list of available packages.
To select multiple packages, press the Ctrl key and select the packages one at a time, or press the Shift key to select a consecutive list of packages. To select all packages, click the Select all checkbox.
Click Next to start the commit process.
Click Finish.
