Hyperledger Fabric 2.2 images will not be released in the future - reminder to upgrade to Hyperledger Fabric 2.5

Preventive Service Planning


Abstract

IBM Support for Hyperledger Fabric Images for Hyperledger Fabric 2.2 will not be released in the future. The May 7, 2024 images are the last release of Hyperledger Fabric 2.2 images.

Content

The previous Upgrade from Hyperledger Fabric 2.2 to 2.5 to maintain a supported environment preventive service planning notification covered that upgrading to Hyperledger Fabric 2.5 should be completed by the end of July 2024.  Hyperledger Fabric version 2.2 is no longer being patched by the Hyperledger Fabric community, so it is not possible to provide security patches for the 2.2 images.  The purpose of this notification is to be explicit that IBM Support for Hyperledger Fabric will not release Hyperledger Fabric 2.2 images anymore.  The images with a May 7, 2024 date stamp (20240507) were the last Hyperledger Fabric 2.2 images (refer to the IBM Support for Hyperledger Fabric fix list for specific image identifiers).  We strongly urge upgrading to Hyperledger Fabric 2.5 as soon as possible to maintain a more current security posture.
