IBM BigFix Patches for Ubuntu is deprecating the Patches for the Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and Patches for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS sites in January 15, 2017. Both sites will then have ‘Deprecated’ appended to the site name in the Overview dashboard.
If you haven’t done so, migrate to the latest Patches for Ubuntu site. BigFix currently maintains the following sites:
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and 10.04 LTS have reached end of life. Moving forward, BigFix will no longer provide content and support for the Patches for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS site after the said date. Since BigFix version 9.2, BigFix has no longer provided content and support for the Patches for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS site.
Note: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS will reach its end of life in April 2017.
Actions to take:
