Note

As per the VMware Aria Operations for Logs Release Notes, if you have already upgraded from VMware Aria Operations for Logs 8.12 to version 8.14 or 8.14 with the Hotfix, we recommend that do not upgrade to version 8.14.1. This is the reason Upgrade Day-2 Action in VMware Aria Operations for Logs version 8.14 appears grayed out. For more information, see the VMware Aria Operations for Logs 8.14.1 Release Notes.
