Obviously I would rather use 4.1 RC due the many changes and fixes present.
Later when 4.1 becomes stable then upgrade to it.
Does anyone see any problem in doing that way or would it be more advisable
to start with 4.0.6 and upgrade to 4.1 stable when time comes ?
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-man...
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.
Best,
