ASA SFR uninstall patch

kostasthedelegate — Fri, 06 Dec 2019 12:14:10 GMT

Hello,

I have an ASA with firepower services.

The SFR is version 6.2.3.14. I want to uninstall the patch and install the 6.2.3.7

I have found this page

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/firepower/623/623x/relnotes/Firepower_Release_Notes_623x/uninstall_procedures.html

where it says about cases where the uninstall should not happen.

I would like to ask if I uninstall it will I have issues?

Thanks and regards,

Konstantinos

I'd highly recommend getting on a call with the TAC for doing this. You may very well encounter issues and the TAC can work through them with you in real time if you open a ticket first.

That said, most use cases would involve upgrading instead of rolling back a patch. 6.4.0.4 is currently the recommended release. It's hard to imagine a condition where you would want to move backwards on an already older release.
