Solution Rollback, Managed or Unmanaged?

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by MikeC282 2,175

Hi 

Quick question to everyone. I'm planning to roll out a series of solution patches to our production environment  but part of the requirements for the rollout is that there is a rollback plan in case something goes wrong. 

My questions is, what is easier in terms of being able to quickly roll a change back, managed or unmanaged solutions and what are the benefits and disadvantages to both?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Mike

    Managed solutions can be uninstalled.

    Unmanaged solution will require manual interaction to delete all individual components.

    So in this case I would go for managed.

    Good explanation can be found here:

    One tipp:

    Make a backup of your database before your deploy. So if something goes wrong, you can completly restore your system.

    Kind regards,
