Hello,
following broadcom support team advice in support case #33106909, i would like newer versions of MySQL Connector/J to be supported.

As​ discuted with the support, i seems that recommended use of connector version is 5.1.49 for Release Automation.
This connector is quite old and newer versions of this connector should be validated for RA.
Many improvements or bug corrections have been made since the release of this older version, maybe this connector version miss some of them.
The engineering team should plan to test and validate more recents version of this connector.

Best regards

Julien

Product Management had confirmed that new version of MySQL connector will be supported in version CA Release Automation 6.8. 

A tentative ETA for 6.8 GA would be toward end of year 2022 or early 2023
