Table of Contents
Question
You are responsible for the application lifecycle management (ALM) process in your company. You are using managed solutions in all downstream environments.
You restructure your solutions and merge some of them together. When trying to uninstall one of the unnecessary solutions, you get a dependency error that is preventing the deletion.
You need to mitigate the dependency and uninstall the solution.
Which three actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
Select all answers that apply.
A. Identify the topmost solution on the dependent component in the target organization.
B. Uninstall the solution layer with the dependency from the target environment.
C. Export the new version as managed and upgrade the solution in the target environment.
D. Export the new version as unmanaged and update the solution in the target environment.

Answer
A. Identify the topmost solution on the dependent component in the target organization.
C. Export the new version as managed and upgrade the solution in the target environment.
E. Prepare a new version of the solution in the organization environment where the solution either does not contain the dependency or has an updated version.
Explanation
This item tests the candidate’s knowledge of solution dependency mitigation.
To resolve a dependency issue when uninstalling a solution from the target environment, you must first identify the solution layer creating the dependency issue in the target environment. Then you can create a new version of that solution in the source environment where the new version does not contain the dependency and upgrade the target environment with the new version.
Exporting the solution as unmanaged and performing an update does not solve the mentioned problem because the target environment is using managed solutions. The same solution cannot be present both as managed and unmanaged in one environment.
Uninstalling the solution layer with the dependency from the target environment would mean uninstalling the solution where the dependent component was installed. This might have other implications, such as data loss, and is not the solution.
