All upgrades

All upgrades should be performed first with a copy of Production data, in an environment that is non-essential. This could be a Vagrant VM and is our typical test hardware for this purpose.

Backups are good to have for many reasons at all times. Especially during upgrades, tested backups become a critical part of our toolkit.

Upgrading from OPC1.2.x

Upgrading from OPC1.2x to EC11x REQUIRES that you first upgrade all systems in a cluster to OPC1.4.6.

	I just reviewed the haw_security_group and it has some pretty big issues.
	When I killed my test stack it removed SecurityGroup entries in the NatSG which affected all other stacks using the NATs.
	Basically all our CIs began to fail because we deleted the port 22 rule so no github :(

	I think the security group needs to be a a dynamic like I mentioned earlier.

	What do you think?
