FAQs About Upgrade

Sometimes, even after deleting mpacks, residual corrupted references may remain. As a result, stack versions might not appear during upgrades from versions 3.2.2.x, 3.2.3.0-x, 3.2.3.1-x, or 3.2.3.2-x. Starting from Ambari version 2.7.8.2-x (ODP-3.2.3.3-x) onwards, only 3.3 and 3.4 stack versions are listed.
