- The upgrade is completed successfully, with all pre-upgrade checks passing and no errors reported.
- The appearance of this warning is unexpected, as existing documentation indicates that this certificate validation issue should only occur when upgrading directly from 11.80GA or 11.80P1, not from 11.90R3.
