 To reduce downtime, the compute services can be upgraded in a rolling fashion.
 It means upgrading a few services at a time. This results in a condition where
 both old (N) and new (N+1) nova-compute services co-exist for a certain time
-period. Note that, there is no upgrade of the hypervisor here, this is just
+period (or even N with N+2 upgraded nova-compute services, see below).
+Note that, there is no upgrade of the hypervisor here, this is just
 upgrading the nova services. If reduced downtime is not a concern (or lower
 complexity is desired), all services may be taken down and restarted at the
 same time.
