Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Feature: The installation and upgrade playbooks got extended to install excluders that protects rpm againts upgrading to undesired versions. Reason: Each OCP version works properly with specific range of versions of packages. Thus, the package versions must be limited and the ranges enforced. Result: Range of versions of packages for each OCP version (since 3.3) is now protected.

Add excluders to prevent related packages from upgrading by "yum update".

Version:
atomic-openshift-utils-3.3.91-1.git.0.b0e1696.el7.noarch

Steps:
1, install ocp v3.3.1.35 on rhel.
2, install atomic-openshift-excluder and atomic-openshift-docker-excluder on the host.
# cat /etc/yum.conf |grep exclude
exclude= docker*1.20*  docker*1.19*  docker*1.18*  docker*1.17*  docker*1.16*  docker*1.15*  docker*1.14*  docker*1.13*  docker*1.12*  tuned-profiles-atomic-openshift-node  atomic-openshift-tests  atomic-openshift-sdn-ovs  atomic-openshift-recycle  atomic-openshift-pod  atomic-openshift-node  atomic-openshift-master  atomic-openshift-dockerregistry  atomic-openshift-clients-redistributable  atomic-openshift-clients  atomic-openshift 

3, prepare new version repo and yum update

result:
Openshift packages are not updated. 


Disable and reset excluders through upgrade playbook.

Version:
atomic-openshift-utils-3.3.91-1.git.0.b0e1696.el7.noarch

Steps:
1, install ocp v3.3.1.35 on rhel.
2, install atomic-openshift-excluder and atomic-openshift-docker-excluder on the host.
3, update atomic-openshift-utils
4, run upgrade playbook to upgrade OCP v3.3.1.36

Result:
Upgrade successfully.
