Preventing further deployment of a tool

You can disable a tool if you want to prevent sites from installing it. There are two ways to disable a tool:

- Disable the tool at the site level

- Disable the tool at the system level

When you disable a tool at the site level, you prevent the site from installing it. When you disable a tool at the system level, you prevent all sites from installing it.

When you disable a tool, existing installations are not affected. You cannot remove site installations from the Appliance Administrator control panel; existing installations can be removed only from the Site Administrator control panel.
