As Mike Taylor pointed out in a previous post this was an incorrect
statement.
You can be at 4.2.x (ie 4.2.0, 4.2.1, 4.2.2, or 4.2.3) and still do a
rolling upgrade.
The minReleaseLevel is not pertinent to a rolling upgrade. The running
daemon is the important part. So you can't have any 4.1.x nodes in your
cluster and do a rolling upgrade to 5.0.
Also, Aaron, as to the OS support. This decision was not made without some
angst. As I mentioned at the user group meeting in NYC...the key point is
that we would like to get to a more current compiler. This will allow us
to take advantage of newer features and functions and hopefully make the
code better for customers. SLES 12 has been around for over 2 years.
I hope this helps give some thinking behind the decision.
