      Description of problem:

      1. In this [documentation|
        https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.18/html-single/updating_clusters/index#migrating-clusters-to-multi-payload] , step 1 of the procedure, the command is wrong, and returns empty, even when RetreievedUpdates can be found in the clusterversion/version, and is true:
      $ oc get clusterversion/version -o=jsonpath="{.status.conditions[?(.type=='RetrievedUpdates')].status}"

       

      $ oc get clusterversion/version -o json
      "conditions": [ { "lastTransitionTime": "2026-02-05T10:33:02Z", "status": "True", "type": "RetrievedUpdates" },

      2. oc adm upgrade in the verification step doesn't show the "working towards" line that is given in the example output
       

      $ oc adm upgrade 
      Cluster version is 4.18.30 
      Upgradeable=False 
      Reason: AdminAckRequired Message: Kubernetes 1.32 and therefore OpenShift 4.19 remove several APIs which require admin consideration. Please see the knowledge article https://access.redhat.com/articles/7112216 for details and instructions. This cluster is GCP or AWS but lacks a boot image configuration. OCP will automatically opt this cluster into boot image management in 4.19. Please add a configuration to disable boot image updates if this is not desired. See https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.18/html/machine_configuration/mco-update-boot-images#mco-update-boot-images-disable_machine-configs-configure for more details. 
      Upstream is unset, so the cluster will use an appropriate default. Channel: stable-4.18 
      Recommended updates: 
      VERSION IMAGE 4.18.30 quay.io/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release@sha256:7426d9127060bd953be7f65b2b7bb2ad0b84dc366a320c789d3dbd9401864c03

       
      3. The recommendation to use "oc adm upgrade status" is no longer correct
       

      $ oc adm upgrade status
      error: unknown command "status" See 'oc adm upgrade -h' for help and examples

       
      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

          

      How reproducible:

          Always

      Steps to Reproduce:

          1. Spin up a cluster in x86 on AWS
          2. Follow the documentation steps
          3.
          

      Actual results:

         Errors in the outputs 

      Expected results:

          outputs suggested by the documentation should reflect the reality of what a user could get on the command line
