You can roll back the Web 2.0 and Mobile Toolkit to an
earlier version using the Installation Manager command line.
Before you begin
Restriction: In order to use this procedure, you
must have Installation Manager Version 1.6 or later installed on your
system.
During the rollback process, Installation Manager
must access files from the earlier version of the package. By default,
these files are stored on your computer when you install a package.
If you change the default setting or delete the saved files, Installation
Manager requires access to the repository that was used to install
the earlier version.
Minimum repositories requirement for
rolling back the Web 2.0 and Mobile Toolkit: Installation Manager
must have access to the following repositories:
- Repositories for the current level of the Web 2.0 and Mobile Toolkit
that is installed on the system
- Recommended: repository for the target roll-back level
of the Web 2.0 and Mobile Toolkit
Procedure
- Optional: If the repository requires a username
and password, create a keyring file to access this repository.
For more information on creating a keyring file for Installation
Manager, read the IBM® Installation
Manager Version 1.6 Information Center.
Tip: When
creating a keyring file, append /repository.config at
the end of the repository URL location if the imutilsc command
is unable to find the URL that is specified.
Note: Starting in Installation Manager Version 1.6.2, the -keyring and
-password options that were used to access credentials in a key ring file are
deprecated. For Installation Manager Version 1.6.2 and later, use the
-secureStorageFile and -masterPasswordFile options to
store credentials in a credential storage file.
In Version 1.7, the format of the secure storage file is revised, and is no longer compatible
with versions of Installation Manager before version 1.7. Update Installation Manager to version 1.7
or higher and then re-create and replace any secure storage files that you created with earlier
versions.
There is no migration path from key ring files to storage files because of the differences in the
file structures. You must create a storage file to replace a key ring file. For more information
about using the -secureStorageFile and -masterPasswordFile
options to store credentials in a credential storage file, see the Installation
Manager Version 1.6 documentation.
- Log on to your system.
- Change to the eclipse/tools subdirectory
in the directory where you installed Installation Manager.
- Use the imcl command to roll back the
Web 2.0 and Mobile Toolkit.
