If eventually it will be production, I'd start with 4.0.6. Generally speaking, if we find in the future a bug when upgrading from 4.0.6 to 4.1.z, we'll try to solve it, so that it does not affect an upgrade from 4.0.6 to 4.1.z+1. But if we find a bug that affects only upgrade from a rc/beta/etc. version to a stable version, we might decide it's not worth fixing. Also note that 4.1.0 should be out really soon: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/releases/4.1/release-management/ So you might as well simply wait a bit. > > My concern are the issue people related they had when upgrading from one > major version to another in the past. In general, or to/from beta/rc/etc versions? In general we appreciate very much people testing upgrades from/to beta/rc versions, and if they find bugs, we do try to fix them. But people should do this in test environments, not ones that are eventually destined to become production.
