{: #suspend-product}
If you need to remove a version of your software that's published to your account without permanently deleting or deprecating it, you can suspend it for 7 days. Suspending a product can be useful if, for example, you discover a bug or a vulnerability in your product that must be investigated before more users install it. {: shortdesc}
Suspending a version of your product will not permanently delete it from your account. If you need to permanently delete a version of your product, deprecate it instead. {: note}
Complete the following steps to suspend your version:
-
In the {{site.data.keyword.cloud_notm}} console, click Manage > Catalogs > Private catalogs.
-
Select the private catalog where your product is located.
-
Select your product.
-
Select the version that you want to suspend.
If your software has only one shared version, and you suspend that version, the entire product is suspended. {: note}
-
Open the Actions menu and select Suspend.
-
Click Suspend.
You can also suspend a version by clicking the Actions icon 
for that version and selecting Suspend.
After you suspend a version of your product, you must share it again within 7 days, or your version will be deprecated. Deprecated versions are removed after 90 days. For more information, see Sharing products with users in your enterprise.
{{site.data.keyword.cloud_notm}} can suspend your product if there's an issue that you need to address. Any updates that you need to make are shared by email.
