OpenShift API for Data Protection (OADP) operator version is higher than the supported OpenShift cluster version

Solution Unverified - Updated

Environment

  • Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (RHOCP)
    • < 4.18
  • OADP 1.3, 1.4

Issue

Due to the incident documented in Red Hat Operator has version higher than the cluster version, the OADP operator may have been upgraded to a version higher than what is supported by the current OpenShift Container Platform (RHOCP) cluster version.

Resolution

There is nothing to do on the cluster at the moment as OADP 1.3 is the supported option (stable channel) on OCP 4.12 through 4.15 and OADP 1.4 is the support option (stable channel) on OCP 4.16 and 4.17

Root Cause

The incident incorrectly exposed the following OADP operator channels to OCP versions :

  • OADP 1.3 was visible on OCP 4.12 through 4.15
  • OADP 1.4 was visible on OCP 4.16 and 4.17

Diagnostic Steps

Run the diagnostic steps available in the Red Hat Operator has version higher than the cluster version knowledge base solution and validate that the redhat-oadp-operator has mismatching version with the OCP cluster.
