Manual unloading for homepages

Update sets cannot be used to transfer other system changes or data. In general, update sets capture
configuration information but not task or process data. For example, update sets track service catalog
item definitions and related configuration data like variables and variable choices. However, if you test
the service catalog by placing orders, the orders (requests, items, catalog tasks) are not tracked by
update sets.

To merge update sets:

2. Use the slushbucket to select the update sets to merge.
3. Enter a name for the new update set. Updates are added to this set when the original sets
are merged.
4. Click Merge selected.
 The new update set is created and changes from the original sets are moved to the
new set. Only changes that are not merged into the new set remain in the original
sets.
 If the same object is updated in both sets (for example, both update sets modify
the Incident form), only the most recent change is moved to the merged update
set. The other update remains in its original update set to provide a record of the
changes that were not moved. You may want to validate that the correct changes
were moved to the new set by viewing the update set.
After merging and validating, it is a good idea to delete or empty the original update sets to avoid
applying an older change by mistake. The system does not remove the updates that were not
merged into the new set.
