Review this information and requirements before performing rollback:
- Rolling back is possible only between patches in the same software release. For example, Rolling back is possible from Orlando patch 2 to patch 1, but not from Orlando to New York.
- The rollback must be done within 10 days of the most recent upgrade or plugin activation. If you need to retain a rollback context for more than 10 days, you can do so by adding a system property. See Rollback context properties.
- You can only roll back to the previous version.
For example, rolling back from patch 3 to patch 1 requires two rollbacks.
- You must have the Restore Deleted Records (com.snc.undelete) and Delete Recovery (com.glide.delete_recovery) plugins activated.
- You can only roll back one active instance at a time.
Rolling back contexts on multiple nodes is not supported.
- A rollback deletes data and may remove evidence of an upgrade or activation record, which makes it difficult to debug the problem that made the rollback necessary.
- To roll back to a patch version before the Assigned WAR, submit a request for Customer Service and Support to do the rollback.
