Uninstalling CIP updates from an existing product installation

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

  1. Download the latest version of the Update Installer. See Recommended fixes for more information.
  2. Install the Update Installer. See Installing the Update Installer for WebSphere® Software in the WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment Information Center for more information.
  3. Uninstall any fix pack, refresh pack, or interim fix that you added to your environment after you installed the CIP.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
