 * By default, {product-title} creates a service account called `sensor-upgrader` in each secured cluster.
 This account is highly privileged but is only used during upgrades.
 If you remove this account, Sensor does not have enough permissions, and you must complete future upgrades manually.

+To view more information about the failure and understand why the upgrade failed, you can check the secured cluster row in the *Clusters* view. For more information, see "Troubleshooting the cluster upgrader".
 
 Some common reasons for the failure are:
 
 * The sensor-upgrader deployment might not have run because of a missing or a non-schedulable image.
 * The pre-flight checks may have failed, either because of insufficient RBAC permissions or because the cluster state is not recognizable.
 This can happen if you have edited {product-title} service configurations or the `auto-upgrade.stackrox.io/component` label is missing.
 * There might be errors in executing the upgrade. If this happens, the upgrade installer automatically attempts to roll back the upgrade.
