      Description

      The releases directory is not created automatically in a tar installation but if it is in the default location it will be missing after tar upgrade instructions. 

      A customer ran into that issue ( 00694594 ) and requested an update to
      https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/v4.4/tutorial/upgrade-ops-manager/ -> "Linux" part of the page for tar installation upgrades.

      After discussing ways to place that information in the TSE team here is a suggested change:
      under Step 2 (https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/v4.4/tutorial/upgrade-ops-manager/#back-up-configuration-files-on-the-onprem-host)  

      add:

      "If the Versions Directory https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/reference/config/ui-settings/#Versions-Directory is in <install_dir> then back it up."

      and then also add under step 5 ( https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/v4.4/tutorial/upgrade-ops-manager/#on-each-onprem-host-restore-the-backed-up-logs-and-configuration-files-into-the-onprem-installation-directory ) :

      add: 
      "Restore the Versions Directory https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/reference/config/ui-settings/#Versions-Directory to <install_dir> if applicable."
