Uninstalling and installing PHP versions

Hello! I am wondering about the installation and uninstallation of PHP versions in EasyApache 4. I have checked so that no website is run on the PHP version that I want to uninstall (PHP 5.5), is it safe to just uninstall the PHP version, and the server won't need to be rebooted? Wondering about the same thing when it comes to installing the newer version (PHP 7.2). Is no reboot needed, and it will just be a pain free process? Want to be on the safe side when doing this as I still am a newbie when it comes to administrating WHM. Thanks!

  Hi @MichaelW. It is completely safe to remove unused versions of PHP as well as install different versions and does not require a reboot. Some information on EasyApache 4 and how it works can be found in our documentation here: EasyApache 4 FAQ - EasyApache 4 - cPanel Documentation Thanks!
