Return to the previously installed version of ExOS

If you have updated the version of ExOS that is running on your Exinda appliance, you can rollback to the previously installed version. Exinda appliances have two partitions for installing ExOS updates. The current, running ExOS version is installed on one partition, and the previously installed version is on the other partition which means you can revert to the older ExOS version.

Note

When rolling back to a previous ExOS version, the system configuration will be changed to the state that it was in, last time you were running the older version. If you've made changes to the system configuration since upgrading from the older version, they will be lost when the Exinda appliance is rolled back.

  1. Click System > Maintenance and switch to the Firmware Update tab.

  2. In the Current Installed Images area, click Switch Boot Partition.

  3. To finalize the ExOS install, you must reboot the appliance. See Reboot the Exinda Appliance.

    After the Exinda appliance reboots, the partition with the older build is running on the appliance.
