Resolution

TIBCO BPM Enterprise (BPME) is tested with the latest stable Kubernetes / OpenShift versions available at the time of the release. The same is documented in the BPME readme for the respective version.

In addition to this, TIBCO supports the latest tested versions of Kubernetes / OpenShift with previous BPME version(s) as long as its major version matches the one mentioned in our product readme and is backward compatible.

For example - 
- BPME 5.4.0 supports OpenShift 4.12.0.  BPME 5.5.0 supports OpenShift 4.14. Then according to this policy, BPME 5.4.0 is supported on OpenShift 4.14 (same major version 4.x) - as long as this OpenShift release is backward compatible with 4.12.0. 
- Similarly, BPME 5.4.0 supports Kubernetes 1.25.x. BPME 5.5.0 supports Kubernetes 1.27/1.28/1.29. Then according to this policy, BPME 5.4.0 is supported on Kubernetes 1.27/1.28/1.29 (same major version 1.x) - as long as these Kubernetes versions are backward compatible with 1.25.x.
