When you upgraded the product from V10.0.0 to V10.0.1, and then to V10.0.2.1, you cannot roll back to V10.0.1 of the product. You must uninstall V10.0.2.1, and then install the desired version.
If you directly upgraded the product either from V10.0.0 or V10.0.1 to V10.0.2.1, then you can roll back to the previous version of the product, that is, V10.0.0 or V10.0.1. The following table illustrates the rollback status when you upgrade the product from previous versions to V10.0.2.1:

| TP-57089 | In Rational Performance Tester V10.0.0 and later, when you set the environment variable, JAVA_HOME, to the bundled JDK that is shipped with the product, tests that run from Jenkins show a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error after completion of the test run. |
| TP-59612 | You must install Rational Performance Tester V10.0.2 on Mac OS by using Installation Manager V1.9.1. For more information, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=ibm11072690. . |

With V10.0.0 and later, you might expect a reduction in the number of Virtual Users (VUs) supported by IBM Rational Performance Tester Agent depending upon workload characteristics. This variation is the result of the product shipping with OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 instead of IBM JRE.
OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 JRE exhibits a higher utilization of CPU for the workload. Up to 30% or more decrease in the supported VUs capacity may be expected for CPU-bound workloads. However, for memory-bound workloads, a much smaller, if any reduction in VUs capacity may be expected. If you need higher performance and have access to IBM JRE 8.0.5.35 or later that contains the latest security fixes, you can switch from OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 to IBM JRE. For more information, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=ibm10956413.
