    Description

      We have occasional cases where admins attempt a rollback, despite long-standing docs:

      Only upgrading to a newer version is supported. Reverting or rolling back your cluster to a previous version is not supported. If your update fails, contact Red Hat support.

      Deeper history for that content here, here, and here. We could refuse to accept rollbacks unless the administrator sets Force to waive our guards.

          Story - Created by Jira Software - do not edit or delete. Issue type for a user story. OTA-488 CVO should only allow the previous version in the cluster history for the rollback

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.

          Epic - Created by Jira Software - do not edit or delete. Issue type for a big user story that needs to be broken down. OTA-455 Support z-stream rollbacks

          • Normal - To be worked after urgent and high priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of an issue is relatively close to the level of effort to fix it. The existence of an easily implemented workaround can also lead to this priority level instead of a higher priority.
