spec.version values

Use this information to identify the spec.version value that you require when creating an instance (or custom resource) by using the App Connect Dashboard, App Connect Designer Authoring, Switch Server, and Integration Runtime APIs that the IBM® App Connect Operator provides.

You can specify the spec.version value either as a fully qualified version or as a channel:

  • If you specify a fully qualified version, the IBM App Connect Operator creates an instance of that specific version. Fully qualified versions are annotated with -rX; for example, 13.0.7.0-r1.
  • If you specify a channel (which omits the -rX annotation), the IBM App Connect Operator identifies the latest fully qualified version on that channel. For example:
    • Specifying 13.0 results in the latest 13.0.M.F-rX version (where M identifies a modification number, F identifies a fix pack number, and X is a number starting at 1).
    • Specifying 13.0.7 results in the latest 13.0.7.F-rX version (where F identifies a fix pack number, and X is a number starting at 1).

    When choosing a channel, be aware that when new Operator patch versions are installed, your instances will be updated to the latest known version if the approval strategy of the Operator was set to Automatic during installation (and a license change is not required).

Note:
  • The fully qualified versions in the format 12.0.12-rX were initially delivered with the Long Term Support Cycle-2 (SC2) release of IBM App Connect Operator 12.0.x and are required to qualify for SC2 support when used with that Operator version. In a 13.0.0 or later Long Term Support Cycle-3 (SC3) release, the 12.0.12-rX versions, or 12.0 and 12.0.12 channels are included only to support an upgrade from an SC2 to an SC3 release of the Operator.
  • The fully qualified versions in the format 13.0.M.F-rX, or the 13.0 and 13.0.M channels were initially delivered with the Continuous Delivery (CD) release of IBM App Connect Operator 12.21.0 or earlier, and are incremented for use in the 13.0.0 or later SC3 release that supersedes CD. (Versions 13.0.5.0-r1 through 13.0.6.2-r1 and corresponding channels were initially delivered with the CD release.)

For more information about the SC3, CD, and SC2 release models that are available for the IBM App Connect Operator, see Release models, packaging, and versions for the IBM App Connect Operator.
