The correct way to upgrade appliance from 4.0 to 4.1 1. Enable GlobalMaintenance 2. Add the 4.1 repositories to the appliance 3. Update the relevant packages 4. Run # engine-setup 5. Disable GlobalMaintenance 6. Change cluster and datacenter compatibility version
The --upgrade-appliance command was added just for the purpose to make an easier pass from 3.6 to 4.0, all other scenarios not supported.
