Downgrade ExtremeCloud IQ Managed Switches to 9.0.0.0

Perform this procedure to downgrade switches that run GA version 9.0.2.0, or later, and are onboarded using ExtremeCloud IQ. This procedure does not apply to switches onboarded using ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine.

Before you begin

This procedure assumes the 9.0.0.0 GA image version is available on the switch. If not, you must upload it and extract the release distribution files to the /intflash/release/ directory.

Procedure

  1. Connect to the switch through the console, SSH, or Telnet.
  2. Activate the 9.0.0.0 image:

    enable

    software activate 9.0.0.0 GA

  3. Disable ExtremeCloud IQ Agent:

    configure terminal

    application

    no iqagent enable

  4. Delete the following file from the switch:

    delete /intflash/.telegraf.csv -y

  5. Optional: Retain a copy of the current configuration, if needed:

    copy config.cfg config.backup

  6. Ensure the boot configuration points to the saved configuration from 9.0.0.0:

    copy config.9.0.0.0 config.cfg

    boot config choice primary config-file config.cfg

  7. Reboot the switch to initiate the downgrade:

    reset -y

  8. Reconnect to the switch and commit the software:

    enable

    software commit
