You can remove CIP updates from an existing product installation
without removing the entire product. Use the IBM Update Installer
for WebSphere Software to uninstall any CIP updates.
Before you begin
You must have at least one existing copy of the product installed
on the system.
About this task
Complete the following procedure to remove CIP updates from
an existing product installation.
Procedure

- Install the Update Installer. See Installing the Update Installer for WebSphere® Software in
the WebSphere Application
Server

Center for more information.
- Uninstall any fix pack, refresh pack, or interim fix that
you added to your environment after you installed the CIP.
- Uninstall any interim fixes that you included in the slip
installation. This process is the same as uninstalling
a single fix pack or refresh pack. However, the maintenance that was
included in the CIP is now included in a single operation.
- Uninstall the CIP by using the Update Installer. The
maintenance levels return to the pre-update state, and the CIP is
denoted by the CIP identifier prepended to its filename.
Results
You successfully removed the CIP updates from an existing
product installation.
