Version(s): enterprise-4.11 enterprise-4.10 enterprise-4.12
Issue:
- options matrix for OCP on RHV in restricted networks is not rendering correctly in v 4.11 docs
- matrix not correct regarding IPI and UPI support for RHV

Additional information:
@engelmi , @janosdebugs I need someone to double check that the support for UPI on restricted networks exists in both 4.10 and 4.11. In the installation instructions in the guide, it implies that both are supported - callout description #4 in this sample YAML file indicates that IPI is supported - https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.11/installing/installing_rhv/installing-rhv-restricted-network.html#installation-bare-metal-config-yaml_installing-rhv-restricted-network
Based on the documentation for 4.10 and 4.11, I'd say yes - not sure how to verify this correctly. Can you help? @janosdebugs
Sadly, I don't know the answer. I have to assume that the previous version would be correct, but @peterclauterbach would probably know more.
I'm not sure I understand the question. Once we support a deployment option, we continue to support it, unless it is explicitly deprecated. Since it was it was supported in OCP 4.9, it is correct that support continues in OCP 4.10 and OCP 4.11.
I believe the question is between UPI and IPI: which one do we support for a restricted network installation?

@peterclauterbach the instructions for OCP on RHV/restricted networks provides the procdure for UPI installations - https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.11/installing/installing_rhv/installing-rhv-restricted-network.html#installation-network-user-infra_installing-rhv-restricted-network But the support matrix in the general Installation chapter is missing an "X" under UPI/Restricted Networks > RHV https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.11/installing/installing-preparing.html#supported-installation-methods-for-different-platforms
- is this simply an oversight that it was not updated?
Yes, it's an oversight. We support UPI installations on restricted networks. The bulk of UPI installations are direconnected.
