Best Way for downgrading an appliance in version 9.4.x

Hello,     I will have a new mission on my F5 LTM 6900 which, today, is in version 10.2.0 (clean installation).   We have to downgrade this unit with the version 9.4.8 for a few time.   ...

Hello everybody,

 

 

I have made my downgrade on my 6900 unit. My system had 3 mirroring partition called MD1.1, MD1.2, MD1.3.

 

For downgrading, I have create two Single Partitions called HD1.1 and HD1.2.

 

I have installed v 10.2.0 on HD1.2. with the image2disk installation command.

 

I have download v 9.4.8 im file on my unit and then perform the 9.4.8 installation. My bigip.license on v10 was reused for re-activate the unit.

 

 

But I didn't use the --nomoveconfig on my unit when I installed 10.2.0 on HD1.2 and my config was kept. Nothing to change. Have you ever see that ?
