You can roll back WebSphere® Application
Server Liberty to an earlier version by using the
Installation Manager command line.
Before you begin
You must have IBM® Installation Manager Version 1.8.5 or later.
During the rollback process, Installation Manager
must access files from the earlier version of the package. By default,
these files are stored on your computer when you install a package.
If you change the default setting or delete the saved files, Installation
Manager requires access to the repository that was used to install
the earlier version.
Procedure
- Optional: If the repository requires a username
and password, create a credential-storage file to access this repository.
Tip: When creating a credential-storage file, append /repository.config at the end of the repository URL location
if the imutilsc command is unable to find the URL
that is specified.
- Log on to your system.
- Stop all servers and applications on the installation that
is being rolled back.
- Change to the eclipse/tools subdirectory
in the directory where you installed Installation Manager.
- Use the imcl command to roll back the
product.
