The Software Update Manager offers the option to reset the update, that is, to undo all changes that have been made in the system during the update procedure.

The reset option is described in the SUM guide (see Other Required Documentation) in section Running the Software Update Manager  Resetting the Update.

When you use the Reset functionality in the built-in database migration option, SUM revokes all update and migration activities that are carried out the point in time you start the reset. Furthermore, it re-establishes the connection to the source database.

To perform this reset procedure, SUM offers in every roadmap step a Reset option in the More menu. This means that you can carry out the reset at every step of the update and migration procedure, even during or after the Business Downtime.

The system is not only reset to run on anyDB afterwards, but completely reset to its status before the update and migration procedure was started. You can then start the update and migration with the SUM again.

Note that after you have chosen the Reset-button, a Confirmation dialog box appears first to prevent an unintended reset.
