      Feature Request Overview (mandatory - Complete while in New status){_}
      {}What user goal or problem do you need to solve?{_} 

      See if we can remove one step in the FFU from 16 to 17 by upgrading Ceph from 5 to 7 directly and skipping 6.

      1. It looks like I can now skip RHCSv6 and upgrade from 5 directly to 7. 
      2. Should we update the FFU docs to skip the RHCSv6 upgrade after we test it?

      Business justification (mandatory - Complete while in New status)
      How would this feature benefit the customer?

      The customer is able to FFU with one less step to save resources and time.

      Functional requirements (mandatory - Complete while in New status){_}
      {}What do you want the result of this feature to be? Add as many requirements as needed.{_}

      • We test that we can skip the RHCS 5 > 6 >7 upgrade by doing directly from 5 > 7
      • We update our documentation
      • We update any automated testing

      Product code changes shouldn't be required, just testing and documenting.

      Describe the customer impact

      The FFU process will be easier for the customer because there will be one less step.
