IBM Cloud Pak for Applications deprecations
If you are migrating your configuration from an earlier release of Cloud Pak for Applications, you should be aware of the various features that were deprecated in this and earlier releases.
If a feature is listed as deprecated, IBM might remove this capability in a subsequent release of the product.
The following tables summarize deprecated features by version and release. Where possible, the tables also indicate the recommended migration action.
Deprecated features not supported on Cloud Pak for Applications version 5.1 or Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.7 and later
Deprecation | Recommended migration action |
---|---|
CLI installer Note: Removed in version
5.1.0
|
The CLI installer is not provided after Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.6. Starting with Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.7, install the included optional components individually. Starting in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.7, the following related
dependencies are no longer required, and are not automatically installed. Use the operator hub to
install these components:

Appsody:
Note: Removed in version
5.1.0
|
These components are not supported for any version of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform after version 4.6, and will be removed in a future release. They will be replaced by a similar capability in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform and exposed through an existing CLI, odo . Providing this support for application stacks directly in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform will provide a single set of tools that can be used with Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, and expand the community and tools that work with stacks. Conversely, existing users will gain new capabilities, such as the ability to develop on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform directly from a laptop, and multi-service applications. |
Eclipse Codewind Note: Removed in version
5.1.0
|
Eclipse Codewind is not supported for any version of Red Hat OpenShift after version 4.6, and will be removed in a future release. Within Red Hat OpenShift, Eclipse Codewind provided an IDE experience for working with application stacks, and by extension, Appsody. As we transition to use Red Hat OpenShift native developer tooling with odo and application stacks based on devfiles, supporting IDE extensions are available through Red Hat OpenShift Connector, which exist as plugins for VSCode and thereby Eclipse Che and CodeReady Workspaces and Intellij , as well as within CodeReady Studio (Eclipse) . |
Accelerator for Teams:
Note: Removed in version
5.1.0
|
Use Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform GitOps to construct your continuous integration/continuous delivery pipelines. |
IBM Application Navigator Note: Removed in
version 5.1.0
|
There is currently no suitable supported replacement. |
