22.6 Canceling a Deployment
This option is mainly for canceling a deployment that has not yet started.

.
However, for an update, you can select to deploy to individual devices, as well as through stages for
the other devices. Therefore, the status in the Available System Updates panel is changed to:
Ready
if you cancel only the staged deployment.
Aborted
if you cancel both the staged deployment and the deployment for individually selected
devices.

If you cancel a deployment that is currently running (not just scheduled), all
deployment actions performed up to that point cannot be reversed. There currently is no
rollback option.
