Deprecating your deployable architecture from the IBM Cloud catalog
You can permanently delete your deployable architecture or its version from the IBM Cloud® catalog by deprecating them first. Your product remains available for use during a 90-day deprecation period, and is removed after 90 days.
Deprecating deployable architectures from the IBM Cloud catalog
To deprecate your entire product, complete the following steps:
- In the IBM Cloud console, click the Navigation Menu icon
> Partner Center > My products.
- Click the Actions icon
for the product that you want to deprecate, and select Deprecate.
- Explain why you want to deprecate the product. You can also provide some additional information, for example, a link to your deprecation announcement.
- Click Deprecate.
Deprecating a specific version of your deployable architecture
You can deprecate only a specific version of your deployable architecture if you don't want to deprecate your entire product. To deprecate only a specific version of your product, complete the following steps:
- In the IBM Cloud console, click the Navigation Menu icon
> Partner Center > My products.
- Select your product.
- Go to the Variation page and select a variation by clicking it. This step directs you to the Software tab.
- Click the Actions icon
for the version that you want to deprecate, and select Deprecate.
- Explain why you want to deprecate the version. You can also provide some additional information, for example, a link to your deprecation announcement.
- Click Deprecate.
If your deployable architecture has only one published version, and you deprecate that version, the entire product is deprecated.
