Evaluating OCP updates to 4.10.14 through 4.10.19

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Clusters updating out of 4.10.14, 4.10.15, 4.10.16, 4.10.17, 4.10.18, and 4.10.19 may, depending on their past history, fail to initiate the update as the pod retrieving the target release collides with previous release data. In order to avoid this trouble, we recommend avoiding updates to these releases. This issue is fixed in 4.10.20 and later.
  • The clusterversion object displays Unable to download and prepare the update: deadline exceeded as shown below.
$ omc get event -n openshift-cluster-version
