+There is a known issue with MariaDB when updating the container image to a new version. If a database upgrade is required and user databases are not in a healthy state, then the MariaDB service may fail to start.
 
 MariaDB version updates (ex: `10.6.x` to `10.11.x`) can happen when updating the container image. Upgrading user databases is done manually by running a command.
