Rollback workflow path: /usr/lpp/zcx_zos/workflows/rollback.xml

This workflow allows you to roll back an upgraded service and maintenance level of an existing zCX instance. It restores the ROOT VSAM data set and configuration files that were saved prior to upgrading.

The rollback workflow will only rollback the service level that was applied to an existing zCX instance, not the user data such as Docker images and containers.

The rollback workflow asks you to provide:
  1. The unique name of the zCX instance to rollback service and maintenance level
  2. The zCX instance registry path, if not specified in the workflow variables input file.
