+Package Updates
+---------------
+
+When updating the ha-manager you should do one node after the other, never
+all at once for various reasons. First, while we test our software
+thoughtfully, a bug affecting your specific setup cannot totally be ruled out.
+Upgrading one node after the other and checking the functionality of each node
+after finishing the update helps to recover from an eventual problems, while
+updating all could render you in a broken cluster state and is generally not
+good practice.
+
+Also, the {pve} HA stack uses a request acknowledge protocol to perform
+actions between the cluster and the local resource manager. For restarting,
+the LRM makes a request to the CRM to freeze all its services. This prevents
+that they get touched by the Cluster during the short time the LRM is restarting.
+After that the LRM may safely close the watchdog during a restart.
+Such a restart happens on a update and as already stated a active master
+CRM is needed to acknowledge the requests from the LRM, if this is not the case
+the update process can be too long which, in the worst case, may result in
+a watchdog reset.
