Db2 V11.1 end of support (EOS) is announced here.
IBM Cloud Pak System includes Db2 pattern type and Db2 V11.1 images. IBM Cloud Pak System V2.3.3.4 and later does not include Db2 V11.1 images. Also, later Db2 pattern type releases do not support Db2 V11.1 installation.
Db2 V11.1 binary files are available as a part of earlier releases of Db2 pattern type and corresponding deployment is successful. But the support is according to Db2 standard guidelines. Therefore, such deployments are not supported after the EOS date (30 April 2022) for Db2 V11.1.
