| <h1>Restoring a saved configuration</h1> |
| |
| <p>A previously saved configuration (or any configuration recorded in the history) |
| can be restored, thereby backing out of the results of an unsuccessful upgrade. |
| Restoring a saved configuration does not delete the files for feature and plug-in |
| versions from the local computer; it merely ignores them and acts as it did |
| when they were not present. To restore a saved configuration to be the current |
| configuration: |
| </p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>Open the main update manager by clicking <b>Help > Software Updates > |
| Update Manager</b>. This opens the Install/Update perspective.</li> |
| <li>In the Install Configuration view, expand the Saved Configurations (or |
| Configuration History) item and select the desired configuration. Click <b>Restore</b>.</li> |
| <li>Click <b>Yes</b> when asked to exit and restart the Workbench for the |
| changes to take effect.</li> |
| <li>Expand the Current Configuration (and children) to confirm that the |
| current configuration now matches the configuration saved earlier.</li> |
| </ol> |
