Installing or rolling back to a specific Operator version

To roll back or install a specific Operator version, update the catalog source, uninstall the existing Operator, and then install a new version of the Operator.

Procedure

  1. Based on the edition that you want to install, click any of the following editions to download the case.
  2. Go to <case>/inventory/ibmOms<Pro/Ent>ProdSetup/resources.yaml to access information for Operator images. You can see this path only after you have downloaded and extracted the case.
    Note: Replace <case> and <Pro/Ent> with the case and edition that you are using.
  3. Copy the Operator catalog image repository and tag. For example, cp.icr.io/cpopen/ibm-oms-<pro/ent>-case-catalog:<tag>.
  4. Update catalog source spec.image by replacing the <updated_catalog_image> in the following example with the copied image.
