I raised a concrete issue regarding 4.3.1/4.4.1 release and I would like to stick to that only. I understand there are too many numbers, versions and branches to follow, so please if you can try to understand the issue; This issue — https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-6756 requires that there are some extra columns in the database to do book keeping when delete ips so you don’t actually delete db/table rows. The issue above is fixed in an upgrade path from 4.3.0 to 4.4.0: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack.git;a=blobdiff;f=setup/db/db/schema-430to440.sql;h=226260804523c79e3ce3cfa3c407b5ac698d749c;hp=3b525c41a1befd94c5ffc324c357b566606a97d0;hb=ce6a53e;hpb=d0f806b3a486c58b033083fc57f39dd686e31750 But, we already have 4.4.0 release and db upgrade paths are always in the next release versions. So, there is no upgrade path from 4.3.1 to 4.4.0; as 4.3.1 version does not care about 4.4.0 schema changes. There is only an upgrade path from 4.3.0 to 4.3.1. So, the limitation is that people won’t be able to upgrade from 4.3.1 to 4.4.0, because 4.4.0 is already released. If we release 4.4.1 before 4.3.1, we’ll have the same issue. So, we can put the fix from the JIRA issue on 4.3 branch so the issue is fixed for 4.3.1. The fix will be in the 4.3.0 to 4.3.1 upgrade path. And, if we release 4.4.1 after 4.3.1, we can fix the upgrade path from 4.3.1 to 4.4.1 on 4.4 branch such that The abstract issue is — we’ll have such issue in future, how do we fix it. I suggested — we make a separate tool that does (rolling) upgrades.
