How to Audit and Maintain Your Application Fleet

Follow this manual to manage the software already established on your server.

Step 1: Identifying Installed Apps

In the App Store, applications that are already active on your node feature a Green "Installed" Badge. You can also view a consolidated list in the "Installed" tab.

Step 2: Updating Software

  1. If a newer version of an application is available, an "Update" button will appear on the card.
  2. Click Update to initiate the synchronization protocol. The system will preserve your existing configurations during the update.

Step 3: Executing Uninstall Protocols

To reclaim system resources, you can remove unused software:

  1. Click the "Uninstall" button on the target application card.
  2. Confirm the deletion. BoostonCP will automatically remove the binaries and clean up system service links.
ADMIN WARNING: Uninstalling core web servers (like Nginx or Apache) will cause all hosted websites to go OFFLINE. Always ensure you have an alternative engine active.
