Migration Rollback

Revert from RTFS to the legacy Federation service using the JFrog CLI migration plugin.

Return to the legacy Federation service if the migration to the Artifactory Federation Service (RTFS) does not complete as expected.

Who can perform this task: Platform Administrators (self-managed)

Prerequisites:

Run the Rollback

To roll back to the legacy Federation service:

  • Run the following command:

    jf federation-migrator migrate_rt <base url without /artifactory> <access token>

    Where:

    • <base url without /artifactory> is the base URL of your Artifactory instance
    • <access token> is a valid access token

    For example:

    jf federation-migrator migrate_rt mycompany.jfrog.io <access token>

The migrate_rt command supports the same command options as the migration command. For the full list of options, see Migration Procedure.

📘

Note

The operation can take anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes to complete. You do not need to restart Artifactory after returning to the legacy Federation service.

When to Rollback

The migration process is designed to prevent inconsistent or "stuck" states. If the migration process doesn't complete as expected, contact JFrog Support.

Tip

For additional information, add --help after the command:

  • jf federation-migrator migrate_rt --help
