if i remember correctly from CM07,it does removal from central when you delete package from its child and remote DP's.I don't think so,it requires you to connect each Primary and remove it from child/Remote DP's. when you deleted the targeted DP's from Central,have you tried looking into the logs for the package removal notification ? may take sometime until the the cancellation messages goes to its child. ------------------------------------ Eswar Koneti Configmgr Consultant www.eskonr.com

What I don't understand is why this is needed.

I accidentally pushed out a massive Software Update package to my whole environment last week and due to its size, I'm having trouble transmitting other packages out to these sites until it finishes. However when I attempt to select this update deployment package from the Central Site and click 'Manage Distribution Points', then Remove this Package from DPs, I don't see any of the child sites listed, just the primaries. However, I do see all of these sites listed as Targeted under Package Status for the same Package. Is this a situation in which I need to connect to each primary site to remove the updates for each DP? If so, why is this behavior present? Thanks,
