Uninstalling fix packs from distributed operating systems by using the GUI
You can roll back a product offering to an earlier version by using the Installation Manager GUI.
Before you begin
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.
Important: Installation Manager can install any fix-pack level of the product directly
without installing the interim fix packs; in fact, Installation Manager installs the latest level by
default. For example, you can skip fix-pack levels and go from Version 9.0.0.1 directly to Version
9.0.0.5. However, keep in mind that later you cannot roll back to any level that was skipped. If you
directly install to Version 9.0.0.5, for example, you cannot roll back to Version 9.0.0.3. If you
skip from Version 9.0.0.1 to Version 9.0.0.5, you can roll back only to Version 9.0.0.1.
