Notes
All operators use Automatic install plan approval unless noted
Channel versions follow semantic versioning where stable-X.Y pins to major.minor
Community operators may have different support lifecycle than Red Hat operators
For production deployments, pin specific versions in subscription manifests
Updating Versions
To update operator versions:
Modify the channel field in charts/region/{hub,east,west}/values.yaml
For external Helm charts, update chartVersion in the application definition
Test in a non-production cluster before rolling out
