However, you can control whether an operator is upgraded automatically by setting an approval strategy. Two approval strategies are available: * Automatic (default) - New operator versions are installed automatically when they are available on the subscription channel. * Manual - When a new operator version is available on the subscription channel, the subscription indicates that an update is available, but you must approve the update manually.
