@@ -18,39 +18,60 @@ This directory contains cluster definitions and scripts for 
testing upgrades fro
 previous version, or to the local build of the code. It is designed to catch 
backwards incompatible changes made between
 an older release of Ozone and a later release (which may be the local build).
 
-## IMPORTANT NOTES
+## Quick Guide For Release Managers
 
-1. Backwards Incompatibility
-    - These tests will not catch backwards incompatible changes against 
commits in between releases.
-        - Example:
-            1. After 1.0.0, a change *c1* is made that is backwards compatible 
with 1.0.0.
-            2. After *c1*, a new change *c2* is made that is also backwards 
compatible with 1.0.0 but backwards *incompatible* with *c1*.
+- The whole test matrix of upgrading and downgrading to/from previous releases 
to the current code is too time consuming to do on every CI run. Instead we 
recommend release managers manually test the full matrix before each release, 
and let only the tests from the previous release to the current code be run in 
CI.
 
-            - This test suite will not raise an error for *c2*, because it 
only tests against the last release
-            (1.0.0), and not the last commit (*c1*).
+1. Before the release, test the whole matrix of upgrades from the previous 
version to the version you are releasing.
+    - This is important manual verification that the release does not break 
backwards compatibility, and the results can be included in the release vote 
mailing thread.
+    - To do this, uncomment all lines that contain `run_test` in the *test.sh* 
file, and execute *test.sh* either locally or on GitHub actions.
+
+2. After the release is finished and its docker image is published, add the 
new version to the test matrix.
+    1. Change the `OZONE_CURRENT_VERSION` variable to 
`OZONE_CURRENT_VERSION=<newly-released-version>`.
+    2. Comment out all `run_test` lines in *test.sh*.
+    3. Add a new line: `run_test ha non-rolling-upgrade 
<newly-released-version> "$OZONE_CURRENT_VERSION"` before the commented out 
lines.
+
+## Important Notes on Test Scope
+
+- These tests will not catch backwards incompatible changes against commits in 
between releases.
+    - Example:
+        1. After 1.2.0, a change *c1* is made that is backwards compatible 
with 1.2.0.
+        2. After *c1*, a new change *c2* is made that is also backwards 
compatible with 1.0.0 but backwards *incompatible* with *c1*.
+
+        - This test suite will not raise an error for *c2*, because it only 
tests against the last release
+        (1.2.0), and not the last commit (*c1*).
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+Non-rolling upgrades and downgrades are supported from 1.1.0 to any later 
version. Note that 1.1.0 did not have the non-rolling upgrade framework, so 
things like preparing the OMs for upgrade and checking finalization status are 
not present in that version. Manual upgrade is the only supported upgrade 
option from 1.0.0 to 1.1.0.

Review Comment:
   I think 1.1.0 is correct here.
