I had some containerized application software break and start misbehaving in odd ways which was indicative of a deeper incompatibility issue. Possibly GPU related. No time to debug, had to roll it back.

This was complicated by the fact that the machine also hosted a MySQL database which could not be easily rolled back because the database was versioned up during the upgrade.

Wait, the containerized application broke because of a host upgrade? That's some leaky container you have there.

This sounds like a business setting, so this sounds like a good opportunity to advocate for testing hardware, a testing budget, a rollout plan, and a sound backup strategy.
