Applications deployed on SAP BTP are always started on the latest version of the application runtime container. This version contains all released fixes, critical patches and enhancements and is respectively the recommended option for applications. In some special cases, you can choose the version of the runtime container your application uses by specifying it with the parameter <--runtime-version> when deploying your application. To change this version, you need to redeploy the application without specifying this parameter.
You have downloaded and configured SAP BTP console client. For more information, see Set Up the Console Client.

If you want to choose the version of the application runtime container, follow the procedure.
-
Open the command prompt and navigate to the folder containing neo.bat/sh (<SDK installation folder>/tools).
-
In the console client command line, execute the <list-runtime-versions> command to display all recommended versions. We recommend that you choose the latest available version.
-
Redeploy your application with parameter <--runtime-version> set to the selected version number.
neo deploy --account <subaccount_name> --application <application_name> --source <file_location> --user <email_or_user> --runtime-version <your_chosen_version > -
Restart your application using the <restart> command.
If you want to return the default behavior when the application is always started on the latest version of the application runtime, redeploy your application without specifying the <--runtime-version> parameter.
By selecting an older version of the application runtime, you do not have the latest released fixes and critical patches as well as enhancements, which may affect the smooth operation and supportability of your application. Consider updating the selected version periodically. Plan the updates to the latest version of the application runtime and apply in your test environment first. Older application runtime versions will be deprecated and expire. Refer to the <list-runtime-versions> command for information.
