Unsupported system - Unsupported software

Do unsupported systems still receive updates? I was under the impression that installing portainer would cause the automatic HAOS updates to refuse to install.

Unsupported is different then unhealthy. Having software running that isn’t managed by HA will usually mark a system as unsupported. Certain software such as container orchestration software that can significantly mess with docker (portainer, watchtower, ouroboros, etc) will mark a system as unhealthy.

Updates are blocked in an unhealthy system because supervisor has no idea what state everything is in, whether what it’s installing is even an update or whether anything it is supposed to do will work. Updates are not blocked in an unsupported state, it’s just letting the user know they should expect issues and complications to arise and they are on their own for fixing them.
