@hari90 @hulien22 Can you please check if this change is correct for OSS upgrade? i.e., while upgrading the OSS YBDB, the user doesn't need to delete the pitr config beforehand and YBDB can handle it as described?

We need to ask the QA team to test failover during upgrade (after DR replica is finalized and before DR primary is finalized).
