Installing or upgrading IBM Cloud Pak for Data Version 4.0.x

News


Abstract

When IBM Cloud Pak for Data 4.5 was released, some of the IBM Cloud Pak for Data Version 4.0.x CASE packages accidentally pulled dependencies that were intended for use with Version 4.5.0.

This problem has been resolved.

You can now install or upgrade IBM Cloud Pak for Data Version 4.0.x.

- The CASE packages for IBM Cloud Pak for Data Version 4.0.9 were updated to prevent this issue.
- This document also includes guidance for how to download CASE packages for earlier 4.0.x releases by using a release-specific URL for each refresh.
