if nothing happens when clicking ok it's usually some validation in the
dialog,
can you check there is nothing highlighted in red (check also other tabs in
the dialog)?
Indeed, can be a validation problem (the better case) or can be an exception on FE (worse
case).
If you verify that there is no validation error on the dialog and the click does not work,
could you please have a look at the javascript console on the FE?
(you can do this in firefox by tools->web developer->web console and on the bottom
select JS, simulate the issue and check if there is some exception. If there is, please
send it and tell me also on what browser have you simulated it in).
adding Tomas, might have a better idea.
you can try updating using rest api (change user/pass and cluster uuid):
curl -X PUT -H "Accept: application/xml" -H "Content-Type:
application/xml"
-u "admin@internal:password"
"http://localhost:8080/api/clusters/dd746d43-4bd1-46aa-b97b-b7bad3f2e498" -d
"<cluster><version major=\"3\"
minor=\"3\"/></cluster>"
