Restoration after patch version upgrade
Hi Team,
I am planning to perform a patch version upgrade（from 8.6.4 to 8.6.6）, but if there is a problem after the version upgrade, I would like to switch back.
Is it possible to revert to the previous state after upgrading?
If possible, could you please tell me how to do it?

Hi @YutaI205: There are multiple ways to revert a upgrade. Some info below.
- You can run reverse.bat or reverse.sh to revert a upgrade
- If you are doing a out of place upgrade, you can fall back to your original DB in case of rollback
- If you are doing in place upgrade, you can handle it in DB using backup (or) restore points for rollback
- Changes other than DB like App server changes to be rolled back separately
- Cases which are created in the new versions should be carefully considered during the rollback
It is always recommended to take a full backup of the database before upgrade.
Thanks.

Hi @ArulDevan.
Thank you for your useful information.
I learned for the first time that there is something called reverse.bat.
I would like to consider which method is the best to use.
Thank you very much.
