Setting installation rollback options
Symantec Packager lets you restore, or roll back, a target computer to its
original, preinstallation configuration if any part of the package installation
fails. During the rollback, Symantec Packager removes the files that were
installed, including drivers and configuration files, and it restores registry
settings.
Installation rollback does not apply to custom commands that might be included
in the package.
