Is anyone using IPM on a version earlier than 2022.1?

Is anyone using the IPM client (e.g., running commands like zpm "install somepackagename") on an IRIS version earlier than 2022.1?

We're thinking about raising the minimum supported version so we can use Embedded Python in IPM. I'm curious if this would impact anyone. Of course, you'd be able to continue to use an earlier version of IPM.

when you say using IPM do you mean perfoming "install -v moduleName" on IRIS or do you mean creating a registry on IRIS earlier than 2022.1

Great question! I mean the client (install -v moduleName / etc.) - will clarify in the original question.

I believe we can determine this by using

SELECTdistinct SystemVersionNumber
FROM ZPM_Analytics.Event
whereAction='install'orderby SystemVersionNumber

On our private registry we see the following


SystemVersionNumber
2020.1
2021.1
2021.1.2
2021.1.3

2022.1
2022.1.2
2022.1.4
2022.2
2022.3
2023.1.1
2023.1.2
2023.3
2024.1
2024.1.1

This is why we have been adovocating to have Username in the table ZPM_Analytics.Event as we create a Username for each one of our "clients" and can trace back who these install records are specifically for,
