Is it possible to rollback an upgrade of teamsite?

Hi,

I have done TS upgrade from 6.7.2 SP2 P2 to 7.3.1 on one of my development server. But now due to some manual mistake I want to roll-back to 6.7.2 SP2 P2. Is it possible? What all thinks I have to take care?
I have backed up my TS6.7.2 /iw-home and /iw-store.

OS: Linux

Thanks.

Unlikely. I have tried the uninstall before (6.7.2 -> 7.2.1 trying to back to 6.7.2), without success. I ended up cleaning everything out and installed 6.7.2

One more potentially big headache is that the 7.X backingstore is not (AFAIK) backwards compatible with 6.7.2. I had to restore an older backingstore as well.

I hope you keep all your TS changes under configuration control.

The backing store code has never been backwards compatible. Any time you process an old backing store with a new version of the product, it is upgraded in-place and cannot be used with the old version of the product.
