REJECT both filesets would fail if rpm.rte was automatically committed during the upgrade, as COMMITTED filesets cannot be reverted via REJECT.

COMMITting bos.rte.install permanently records it as the installed version and removes the ability to reject it, which is the opposite of backing out the change.

In AIX, the installp REJECT operation can only revert filesets that are still in the APPLIED state, not those that have been COMMITTED. Since bos.rte.install was automatically upgraded as a dependency and may still be APPLIED, it can be rejected, but rpm.rte requires an overwrite installation with the older version from media because direct rejection may not be available or sufficient. This combination is the only viable path to reversing both upgrades.

The CLEANUP operation removes a fileset that is in a broken or partially installed state and does not revert a successfully applied upgrade back to the previous installed version.
