I agree with Jim. While I am not aware of any Specific updates to objects in this upgrade there are almost always some. Common examples of objects that get internal changes are user profiles and database objects. In some cases you can restore them back to i 7.1 if saved that way but I wouldn't bet that restoring IBM i 7.1 on top of 7.3, if it even allows you to do that' is a workable option.

Use the backups!

I need a V7R3 to V7R1 rollback plan.

Either
1) Restore system files only from V7R1 save before upgrade.
2) Reinstall from a V7R1 DSLO image (dated)
3) Other

Anyone ever do a rollback and have any history notes for reference?

Thank You
