Updating the summary to indicate that this is an investigative task rather than an implementation one. The OVN team will do investigation and come up with more concrete smaller subtasks to perform to reach this goal, assuming that the investigation finds that this sort of upgrade is feasible.

Then this was very poorly communicated, for instance RHV team for years of support of OVN never defined any upgrade order, the order is flexible and RHV is routinely upgraded with controller first.

Likely could be better communicated, yes. Though the OVN upgrade documentation here: https://docs.ovn.org/en/latest/intro/install/ovn-upgrades.html (sourced from https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn/blob/main/Documentation/intro/install/ovn-upgrades.rst) hasn't changed in ~6 years and it's pretty clear about upgrading controllers first. |
