    Plan your migration

    Before performing your migration to OpenShift Data Foundation 4.11, it is important to take the time to properly plan for the transition as described in Migration Toolkit for Containers. OpenShift Container Platform 4 introduces architectural changes and enhancements, so the procedures that you used to manage your OpenShift Container Platform 3 cluster might not apply for OpenShift Container Platform 4.
