General Availability is planned for this week (May 15, 2026). This depl=
oyment option supports IBM Confidential Computing containers when Red Hat=
OpenShift runs in =E2=80=9Cbare metal=E2=80=9D LPARs on IBM z17 and Linu=
xONE 5 servers. It also improves performance and lifts some prior persist=
ent storage limits

Timothy, thank you for the link.

If (or when) you have an IBM z17 or LinuxONE 5 server, please make sure=
you order the no charge Feature Code 0115 (Secure Execution for Linux) s=
ince that=E2=80=99s a prerequisite for IBM Confidential Containers.
In general, even if you dont know if you will use confidential containers=
, hyperprotect or whatever in the future, its always a good idea to tick =
Feature code 115 when ordering a new box. Its free of charge and then the=
box will then already have all the necessary keys.
Getting it later is also possible but this requires some additional steps=
and creates unnnecessary delays.
