This Knowledge Base Article explains how to view and manage installed patches in Saner Patch Management. The Installed Patches page provides detailed visibility into patches that have already been applied across devices and software assets, enabling administrators to verify patch compliance, review installation details, and manage rollback actions when required.


Summary

The Installed Patches page in Saner PM offers a comprehensive view of successfully deployed patches. It includes key details such as patch size, installation date, rollback eligibility, and associated devices or assets. The page also supports filtering, search, and rollback management to simplify patch tracking in large environments.


1. Overview of Installed Patches Page

The Installed Patches page enables administrators to:

  • View a complete list of patches that have been successfully installed

  • Identify the devices or software assets associated with each patch

  • Determine whether a patch supports rollback and take appropriate action

This view helps validate patch deployment effectiveness and maintain system stability.


2. Toggle Between Device and Asset View

A toggle option is available at the top of the Installed Patches pane, allowing users to switch between two perspectives:

Device View

  • Displays patches installed on individual devices

  • Includes details such as:

    • Device Name

    • Patch Size

    • Installation Date

    • Rollback Option

Asset View

  • Shows patches applied to specific software assets

  • Helps understand which vulnerabilities have already been addressed for each asset

This flexibility allows administrators to manage patches based on either device-level or asset-level requirements.


3. Column Details

The following columns are displayed in both Device and Asset views:

ColumnDescription
Patch NameName or identifier of the installed patch
System / DeviceThe system or device on which the patch was installed
Asset (if applicable)The software component or application associated with the patch
Installation DateThe date the patch was applied
Patch SizeSize of the patch file (MB/KB)
Rollback StatusIndicates whether rollback is supported and its current status

4. Patch Rollback Option

If a patch supports rollback, the following steps can be used:

  1. Click the expand icon next to the patch entry

  2. The detailed Installed Patches page with rollback controls will be displayed

  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to proceed with the rollback, if required


Note: Rollback availability depends on the patch type and system configuration.


5. Filters and Search

To simplify navigation and improve efficiency, the Installed Patches page provides:

Filters

  • Group Filter: Narrow down patch data by selecting a specific device group

Search

  • Keyword-based search to locate installed patches by:

    • Device Name

    • Asset Name

    • Patch Name

These options are especially useful in environments with a large number of devices.


Conclusion

The Installed Patches page in Saner PM enables administrators to effectively track patch deployment, verify successful installations, and manage rollback operations when necessary. By leveraging device and asset views along with filters and search capabilities, organizations can ensure better patch compliance and operational control.
