Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
Previously, the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor failed to interpret the major version of an image and attempts to reinstall the Hypervisor would fail with an error. This has now been corrected so that the Hypervisor accepts a major version mismatch and reinstalls as expected.

3. TUI installer prompts "Major version upgrades are unsupported"
