Where did the middle tier image download go that used to exist under "manage deployments"

We are currently working on upgrading to 23.2.6 (remote deployment).  The middle tier server image files are no longer showing under “manage deployments” in the LE build place.  Our current application version 23.2.0 is running on OVA 2.0.1, but I’m pretty sure I saw that new SUs were running a newer middle tier version before we lost access to the dropdown list previously showing under manage deployments.  The bootstrap and binary downloads are still there, but the OVA dropdown seems to have been replaced by Oracle version package downloads.  Any idea where they went?

Hi!
The Remote Virtual Appliance Artifacts are de-supported from 23R2 GA onwards and hence not shown for users in 23R2 or later (https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/ale/020_lifecycle/040_build_place_deliveries/040_applying-the-delivery-to-use-place/#artifact_download_functionality). 

It seems that there is some misunderstanding in newer documentation for 23R2 or later (https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/24r1/070_remote_deploy/010_installing_fresh_system/030_preparing_server/40_middletier_server/#install_middle_tier_server).

Seems that for 23R2 or later you should use Original Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS ISO.

Thanks aNm.  Since we are already running 20.04 for our current version, I guess there is no need to change appliances for this upgrade to 23R2 or future updates.
