FAILures from the checker script are (almost) *never* ignore-able. :)

In this case you will be glad to hear that with corosync 3, a new transport
technology was adoped, i.e., kronosnet. It currently is only capable of
unicast. The corosync internal multicast-udp and udpu stack was depreacated
and removed in favor of that. So having it set to udpu will fail the upgrade.

See:

In your case, and a healthy cluster, I'd drop the transport while *not*
restarting corosync yet. That's a change which cannot be applied live, so
corosync will ignore it for now. Then you can continue with the upgrade
to corosync 3 - still on PVE 5/Stretch, see above.

cheers,
