Doc Text:
OpenShift allows installation of vSphere CSI driver shipped by either upstream community or VMware. Red Hat does not support this driver, however, we allow cluster admins to install it and use it, as it have more features that the vSphere CSI driver shipped by Red Hat. OpenShift can be upgraded at least to version 4.12 with the upstream / VMware version of the CSI driver. In a future release, OpenShift will require clusters to upgrade to the version of vSphere CSI driver shipped by Red Hat as part of OpenShift.

Description Hemant Kumar 2022-05-23 15:52:18 UTC
do not block 4.10 to 4.11 upgrades if an existing CSI driver is found. Instead, warn about presence of third party CSI driver in 4.10 and 4.11. Similarly we should not block upgrades from 4.11 to 4.12 if an existing CSI driver is found. All such blocking paths should however trigger warnings in customer clusters.
