IBM guides will need their own upgrade procedures after the large deployment guides are broken into separate guides.

Task scope:

• Separate the IBM "install/upgrade Operator" modules.
• Check whether IBM upgrade also needs user to delete and re-create KataConfig CR for IBM with peer pods.

Update (Feb 2026): I split the install/upgrade modules myself but the rest of the section needs to be reviewed in the new guides:

• Deploying OSC on IBM
• Deploying CoCo on IBM with peer pods
• Deploying CoCo on IBM on bare metal
