note

Replicated kURL is available only for existing customers. If you are not an existing kURL user, use Replicated Embedded Cluster instead. For more information, see Using Embedded Cluster.

kURL is a Generally Available (GA) product for existing customers. For more information about the Replicated product lifecycle phases, see Support Lifecycle Policy.

This topic describes how to access the installation commands for all active and inactive kURL installers promoted to a channel.

About Using Inactive Installers​

Each release channel in the Replicated Vendor Portal saves the history of kURL installers that were promoted to the channel. You can view the list of historical installers on the kURL Installer History page for each channel. For more information, see About the Installer History Page below.

It can be useful to access the installation commands for inactive installers to reproduce an issue that a user is experiencing for troubleshooting purposes. For example, if the user's cluster is running the inactive installer version 1.0.0, then you can install with version 1.0.0 in a test environment to troubleshoot.

You can also send the installation commands for inactive installers to your users as needed. For example, a user might have unique requirements for specific versions of Kubernetes or add-ons.

About the Installer History Page​

The kURL Installer History page for each channel includes a list of all the kURL installers that have been promoted to the channel, including the active installer and any inactive installers.

To access the kURL Installer History page, go to Channels and click the Installer history button on the target channel.
