Formulate a rollback plan

In the event that an upgrade does not go successfully, have a rollback plan in place.

Consider the following:

• A rollback would occur only after migration of an upgraded project to the production environment.

• Test your rollback plan in the test environment.

• Define the set of circumstances that would initiate a rollback.

A rollback procedure involves:

• Removing the new AVEVA Production Management version and restoring the old version.

• Restoring the original AVEVA Production Management backup taken before the upgrade process.

• Restoring the data repository that was taken immediately prior to building the new production environment.

• Verifying that the rollback procedure is successful.
