revert to previous version
I installed the upgrades on Redhat Linux and that caused incompatibility issues with some software that I was previously using. The major update was upgrade from Linux 6.5 to 7, but there were several other packages also installed..
I, accidentally, did not create a “Snapshot” before the upgrade. However, I was able to identify all the packages that were upgraded along with the kernel. So, is it possible to go back to the previous configuration (kernel version and all packages)?
Thanks,
Nikhil

Hi Nikhil,
This is not something I would personally recommend and would have ongoing concerns about the system's integrity post downgrade. I also have my doubts that Red Hat will support this process.
I think the best thing to do would be to contact Red Hat support and get an official answer(and vault your last backup!).
Hello Nikhil,
I think it's possible, but I recommend to contact Red Hat support too. However in rhel6 is possible use the command yum history for list all the packages changes for more information use yum history info + [number of change]. End yum undo + [number of change] for undo the changes with packages. Again I recommend to contact Red Hat support.
Good luck
