Update Application: Once an application is updated (deploy a new image of that application to an edge device), the previous (now obsolete) version of that application must be removed from the Manufacturing Connect Edge device. See Manage Images﻿  for removal. Obsolete images do not interfere with the new image operations but they do occupy significant disk space, which might pose a problem.
Delete Application: The application does not need to be stopped first to delete it. This delete operation only terminate the Docker container, but it does not remove the Docker image from the Manufacturing Connect Edge instance. Ensure, if needed, you also manually delete the Docker image from the Manufacturing Connect Edge instance as it does occupy significant disk space. See Delete image of ﻿Manage Images﻿ for details.
