And then the clients will pull the update. In case of any issues, restore backup on deployment server and the clients will pull the old version again.</P> Fri, 21 Jun 2019 09:18:03 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-disable-Splunk-app-using-deployment-server/m-p/436303#M124350 FrankVl 2019-06-21T09:18:03Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-disable-Splunk-app-using-deployment-server/m-p/436304#M124351 <P>Thanks a lot Frank <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span> and other folks Vijeta and paramagurukarthikeyan for your answers.</P> Fri, 21 Jun 2019 10:21:08 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-disable-Splunk-app-using-deployment-server/m-p/436304#M124351 tbavarva 2019-06-21T10:21:08Z
