Hi all

Does anyone have a list of procedures to follow if needing to revert to a 
previous version of TSM after an upgrade. I am running a single server install 
with about 70 clients.

I'm going from 5.4 to 5.5 in the next couple of weeks, and though I don't 
foresee any issue I need to make sure I'm prepared.

Of course, prior to the upgrade I will be taking all necessary backups and 
precautions.

So, if I did need to revert what would the process be?


I'm thinking...

Stop and uninstall version 5.5 TIVsmS and TIVsmSlic.

Install version 5.4 and then patch as necessary (5.4.1.2 in this case).

Issue the 'dsmserv restore db' command (would I need to have replaced the 
original vol hist file first?).

Start server

Re-register licenses.


What am I missing?

Regards

Farren Minns
