# v1.9.7

[Documentation](https://docs.k8s.io) & [Examples](https://releases.k8s.io/release-1.9/examples)

- The `generate_groups.sh` and `generate_internal_groups.sh` scripts from the `k8s.io/code-generator` repo are deprecated (but still work) in favor of `kube_codegen.sh` in that same repo.  Projects which use the old scripts are encouraged to look at adopting the new one. ([#117897](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117897), [@thockin](https://github.com/thockin)) [SIG API Machinery]...

- Kubeadm: Some text in the `kubeadm upgrade plan` output has changed. If you have scripts or other automation that parses this output, please review these changes and update your scripts to account for the new output. ([#98728](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98728), [@stmcginnis](https://github.com/stmcginnis)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

    * enforces  kubeadm  upgrading kubernetes from the same major and minor versions as the kubeadm binary.
* Bugfix allowing use of IP-aliases with custom-mode network in GCE setup scripts. ([#62172](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/62172), [@shyamjvs](https://github.com/shyamjvs))

Invocations using `kubectl alpha debug` are now deprecated and will be removed in a subsequent release. Update your scripts to use `kubectl debug` instead of `kubectl alpha debug`!

- Updated defaultbackend image to 1.5. Users should concentrate on updating scripts to the new version. ([#69120](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69120), [@aledbf](https://github.com/aledbf))
