Migrating from Telepresence to Blackbird

If you're transitioning from Telepresence to Blackbird, this guide will help ensure a smooth migration.

Key considerations

  • Maintaining compatibility – You don’t need to update your existing scripts immediately. To keep them running as expected, you can create an alias by running: alias telepresence='blackbird cluster' in your terminal. This allows scripts that rely on telepresence commands to continue working while you transition.
  • Installing Blackbird components – You must install the latest versions of the Blackbird CLI and Traffic Manager. The Telepresence Traffic Manager isn't compatible with Blackbird. For more information, see Getting started with the Blackbird CLI and Installing the Traffic Manager.
