Hi, We're actually on very similar setup to you with 18.04 and Nautilus and thinking about the 20.04 upgrade process. As for your RGW, I think I would not consider the downgrade. I believe the order is about avoiding issues with newer RGW connecting to older mons and osds. Since you're already in this situation and not having any issues, I would probably continue forward with the upgrade on Mons, then Managers, then osds as per documentation. Then just restart the RGW at the end. I think that trying to downgrade at this point may introduce new issues that you don't currently have. This is just my opinion though, as I have not actually tried this. Do you have a test cluster you could practice on? I would be keen to hear how your upgrade goes.

So I'm looking to downgrade the rados gateways, back to Nautilus, just to be safe.
