Issue/Introduction

How to design and implement a 'Roll-Back' for a Siteminder upgrade should problems arise after upgrade.

 

 

Environment

Release : ANY

Component : ANY

Operating System: AnY

Resolution

There is no 'In-Place' downgrade feature in any of the Siteminder components.   A downgrade would require the uninstallation of the current version and the subsequent installation of the older version.

In virtualized environments, you could take a snap-shot of the server and save the image.  Then in the event a roll-back is necessary you could restore the image of the server taken prior ot upgrade.
