Symptoms

On Event Endpoint Management deployments with IBM Cloud Pak for Integration, the Event Endpoint Management operator fails with a timeout.

You might see the following error message in the operator logs:

Caused by: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field "integrationMonitoring" (class com.ibm.cp4i.v1.cp4iservicesbindingstatus.Metadata), not marked as ignorable (4 known properties: "UIEndpoint", "coreNamespace", "integrationKeycloak", "uiendpoint")
at [Source: REDACTED (`StreamReadFeature.INCLUDE_SOURCE_IN_LOCATION` disabled); line: 1, column: 2080]

Causes

An update to the Cp4iServicesBinding in IBM Cloud Pak for Integration 16.2.0 and later is not compatible with Event Endpoint Management versions 11.7.x and earlier versions.

Resolving the problem

Upgrade to Event Endpoint Management version 11.8.0 or later. For more information about the supported operator and instance versions in IBM Cloud Pak for Integration, see the Cloud Pak documentation.
