Chapter 2. Configuring the upgrade strategy for OpenShift AI
As a cluster administrator, you can configure either an automatic or manual upgrade strategy for the Red Hat OpenShift AI Operator.
By default, the Red Hat OpenShift AI Operator follows a sequential update process. This means that if there are several versions between the current version and the version that you intend to upgrade to, Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) upgrades the Operator to each of the intermediate versions before it upgrades it to the final, target version. If you configure automatic upgrades, OLM automatically upgrades the Operator to the latest available version, without human intervention. If you configure manual upgrades, a cluster administrator must manually approve each sequential update between the current version and the final, target version.
For information about supported versions, see the Red Hat OpenShift AI Life Cycle Knowledgebase article.
