Recovering Expired Rollback Contexts

Jeffrey Beaudry

It was brought to my attention recently that a user made multiple changes to some records on 12/29 that need to be reverted back.

Unfortunately looking at the Rollback Contexts, the item is in a state of 'Expired'.

Is there anyway to recover those contents or are they gone forever?

Thank you.

Hi @Jeffrey Beaudry ,

The rollback process on Now Support does the following:

  • Updates the reported WAR to the rolled-back version and the assigned WAR remains set to the version before the rollback.
  • Sets the property glide.war.no_upgrade on the instance is set to the version before the rollback.
  • Displays the message, "Desired war matches reverted war specified by property [glide.war.no_upgrade]. Upgrade script will NOT run".
  • Changes the state to Expired and the rollback purges all stored data.

So, i don't think you would get that working.
