+====
+If you have virtual machines running that cannot be live migrated, they might block an {product-title} cluster upgrade.
+This includes virtual machines that use hostpath provisioner storage or SR-IOV network interfaces.
+
+As a workaround, you can reconfigure the virtual machines so that they can be powered off automatically during a cluster upgrade. Remove the `evictionStrategy: LiveMigrate` field and
+set the `runStrategy` field to `Always`. Learn more about xref:../virt/live_migration/virt-configuring-vmi-eviction-strategy.adoc#virt-configuring-vmi-eviction-strategy[configuring virtual machine eviction strategy].
