Chapter 1 Upgrading, Downgrading, Backing Up and Restoring Software Files : Downgrading TIBCO Messaging Appliance Software

Downgrading TIBCO Messaging Appliance Software
To downgrade to TIBCO Messaging Appliance software already installed on your P-7500 system, or to install old TIBCO Messaging Appliance software from a Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) server to the /loads subdirectory on your P-7500 system for software downgrade, follow this procedure:
1.
If installing old TIBCO Messaging Appliance software from a SFTP server, ensure that you have an SFTP server on the P-7500 system network to which you have IP connectivity.
2.
To display and determine the current TIBCO Messaging Appliance software versions installed and available on the P-7500 system, enter the show version CLI command:
   tibco> show version
Observe the version values listed under the Loads available on the system heading near the bottom:
    tibco> show version

3.
Enter the enable command at the User EXEC Level prompt:
   tibco> enable
   tibco#
The P-7500 CLI is now in Privileged EXEC level.
4.
To avoid a situation where the P-7500 system does not have a current TIBCO Messaging Appliance configuration to start from, enter this copy Privileged EXEC command to retain the current TIBCO Messaging Appliance configuration in the /configs subdirectory by making a local copy of it:
   tibco# copy current-config
   /configs/old_version_preDowngradeCfg
where old_version is the version number of the current TIBCO Messaging Appliance software. Valid version values are of the form x.y.z, where x and z are decimal integers, and y can be a mix of decimal integer and letter (for example, 4.0b.1).
5.
To downgrade to TIBCO Messaging Appliance software versions already installed on the P-7500 system (as displayed through the show version CLI command in step 2), go to step 7. Otherwise, to install old TIBCO Messaging Appliance software onto the system from a remote server, go to step 6.
6.
Enter this copy Privileged EXEC command to copy the old TIBCO Messaging Appliance software from the remote server to the /loads subdirectory on the system:
   tibco# copy scp://[username@]ip-addr/remote-pathname
   /loads
where username, ip-addr, and remote-pathname point to where the old TIBCO Messaging Appliance software is located.
7.
The administrator enters the following boot Privileged EXEC command to downgrade the P-7500 system software to the old TIBCO Messaging Appliance software and activate it:
   tibco# boot version
where version is the version number of the old TIBCO Messaging Appliance software to be activated. Valid version values are of the form w.x.y.z, where w, x, y and z are decimal integers.
8.
You have completed this procedure.
