vsx_util downgrade

Description

Important - You can use this command only if you did not make any configuration changes after you used the "vsx_util upgrade" command.

Important - Before you run the vsx_util commands:

  • Back up the VSX environment. See sk100395: How to backup and restore VSX gateway.

  • You must close all SmartConsole clients. Failure to do so may result in a database lock error.
