About

OADP is the OpenShift API for Data Protection operator. This open source operator sets up and installs Velero on the OpenShift platform, allowing users to backup and restore applications.

Velero Version Relationship

By default, OADP will install the forked versions of Velero that exist under the openshift organization. These images have minor tweaks to support the OpenShift specific use cases of using Velero with OCP. The openshift images tend to lag behind Velero upstream releases as we are more cautious about supporting older versions. Here is the default mapping of versions:

OADP Version	Velero Version
v0.2.6	v1.6.0
v0.5.5	v1.7.1
v1.0.0	v1.7.1
v1.0.1	v1.7.1
v1.0.2	v1.7.1
v1.0.3	v1.7.1
