asterisk users - Dec 2007 - rollback procedure requirements before asterisk upgrade

Dear all,


I've a live system that needs to be upgraded but, before I proceed to the
upgrade I want to assure the rollback process.

That's why I'm requesting your feedback, in fact this asterisk in live
system isn't going so bad but.... the upgrade is essential

NOTICE that the upgrade will keep the same version 1.2 not from 1.2 to 1.4

Requirements:

-backup /usr/sbin/asterisk
-backup /usr/lib/asterisk/modules

Download  asterisk 1.2.25 and compile it.

This way I've tested and seems to work fine in my Virtual Machine lab.

The only issue i found was one module that is loaded with my
modules.confthat I needed to copy from the backup
/usr/lib/asterisk/modules and  give
the right permissions.

Am I missing something?



best regards,

Marco Mouta

marco,
I use 1.4 exclusively but I would think a minor version would go pretty 
easy if you are installing from sources for the current version as well 
as the upgrade...
I would note (not a mental note, a written note) which source versions 
you are using for libpri, zaptel, *, and addons.  you already compiled 
them and they are working as a unit.
download the new versions, and compile and install as usual..  if you 
added additional modules in the current version, do the same for the new 
version...
you should always be able to drop back by following a standard install 
using the previously noted versions...
that should do it..
