ibm app connect enterprise certified container UPGRADE

Affected: >= 7.0 and <= 12.4

Fixed in: newer than 12.4

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 7.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy app-connect-enterprise-certified-container || rpm -q app-connect-enterprise-certified-container || app-connect-enterprise-certified-container --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 12.4 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade app-connect-enterprise-certified-container

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade app-connect-enterprise-certified-container

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 7.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison app-connect-enterprise-certified-container sudo apt install app-connect-enterprise-certified-container=<VERSION_BEFORE_7.0> sudo apt-mark hold app-connect-enterprise-certified-container

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list app-connect-enterprise-certified-container sudo dnf downgrade app-connect-enterprise-certified-container-<VERSION_BEFORE_7.0> sudo dnf versionlock add app-connect-enterprise-certified-container

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
