As an FYI, we are going to make some changes: - OpenShift 4.3: Revert DefaultSecurityContextConstraints_Mutated in 4.3. We have a PR open for this - https://github.com/openshift/cluster-kube-apiserver-operator/pull/830. It will go into 4.3.z. - OpenShift 4.4: Mark the CVO manifests for the default SCCs as `create-only`. CVO will create/recreate if any default SCCs are deleted but will tolerate changed made to any default SCC. https://github.com/openshift/cluster-kube-apiserver-operator/pull/831 (will be back ported to 4.4) So closing this BZ
