Adding and Removing Plesk Components

 
administrator guideplesk administrationplesk componentsserversoftware

To add or remove Plesk components, go to Tools & Settings >
Updates.

When you select Add/Remove Components, you will be asked to provide
system user credentials to proceed.

Note: You need to provide system user credentials, not those used to log in
to Plesk. The user in question also must have the necessary
permissions to install software. The administrator credentials you
use to log in to the server via RDP should work fine here.

Next, click Add/Remove Components to see a list of all available
Plesk components. Some of them are presented individually, and some are
grouped by function.

The image 74723 icon next to a component indicates that the
component is installed, and the image 74724 icon indicates that it
is not installed. The image 74725 icon next to a group of
components indicates that not all components in the group are installed.
Groups with all components installed are marked with the
image 74726 icon, and those with no components installed are
marked with the image 74727 icon.

To mark a component for installation, click the image 74728 icon
next to the component’s name > Install. You can mark all components
in a group for installation by clicking the image 74729 icon next
to the component’s name > Install.

image 74733

To mark a component for removal, click the image 74730 icon next
to the component’s name > Remove. You can mark all components in a
group for removal by clicking the image 74731 icon next to the
component’s name > Remove.

After you have marked all components you want to install or remove,
click Continue to begin the installation or removal. To exit the
Plesk Installer without making any changes, click Cancel modifying.
