from my experience and the documentation the unavailable usually means connection limit reached.

yellow triangle status icon - The object is not currently available, but might become available later with no user intervention. For example, an object that has reached its configured connection limit might show a yellow status and then switch to a green status when the number of connections falls below the configured limit.

release notes don't show anything.

did you reboot before the upgrade and check status then?
