Restoring the previous service level

 

To restore the previous service level:

1. End all WebSphere MQ activity:

   1. Log in as root.

   2. Use the endmqm command to stop all running queue managers.

   3. Stop any listeners associated with the queue managers, using the command:

      endmqlsr -m QMgrName

   4. To check that you have stopped all of them, enter the following:

      ps -ef | grep mq

      Check that there are no processes listed that are running command lines beginnings amq or runmq. Ignore any that start with amqi.

2. Use the pkgrm command to remove the latest service update from the system.

     pkgrm packagename

   where packagename is the name of the package that you want to remove.

   Ignore any error messages of the form <shared pathname not removed>.

   Details of the pkgrm command can be found in the Solaris documentation, or by using the man pkgrm command.

3. If you have installed a WebSphere MQ client, and the client was updated after installing the service level that is being removed, specifically update your WebSphere MQ client installation again, after the service level has been removed.
