Micro Focus has decided not to renew its distribution contract with DataDirect for database drivers. Because Release Control is run on top of SBM, and SBM used to distribute these drivers are part of its installation, this change impacts you.
SBM 11.7.1 and older include a the DataDirect ODBC drivers as part of the SBM bundle, all versions prior to SBM 11.8 will be removed from the Support Portal at the end of June 2023. After this time, you will no longer have access to these installation packages. They will not be available on the Support Portal, and the support team will not be able to provide these versions. It is critical that you download any older versions you need prior to end of June 2023.
If you are running SBM 11.7.1 or older, you will need to download any important versions of SBM prior to end of June 2023.
