Fallback from z/OS 2.1 to z/OS 1.12 or z/OS 1.13

The CIM server does not automatically support fallbacks to a previous version. To do so, you must recover the necessary files from repository backups.

__ 1.

Stop the CIM server

__ 2.

Delete /var/wbem/repository

__ 3.

Delete /var/wbem/repository_status

__ 4.

Copy /var/wbem/repository_old_<timestamp> to /usr/lpp/wbem/repository,

where <timestamp> is the time when you migrated from the former to the later release

If this file is no longer available and you do not have your own backup, you can find the originally delivered version in the master repository located in /var/wbem/repository, but all your changes, such as special provider registrations, will be lost.

__ 5.

Restart the CIM server
