Method 1: Official OLM / OpenShift Upgrade
Follow the official documentation steps for upgrading UMA via the Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) on OpenShift.

 

Method 2: Helm Upgrade
If you manage your UMA deployment via Helm, proceed with a standard Helm upgrade follong documentation rather than manually patching OpenShift resources. Ensure your Helm repository is updated to pull the latest charts and images.
