The upgrade process for RDO is documented here. I assume it will be
updated for upgrades from Mitaka to Newton when the time comes.

As far as finding documentation on topology, scaling (adding computes),
and configuration management, you may want to look at the Red Hat
OpenStack Platform documentation. RH OSP is just the commercially
released version of the RDO source code, so almost everything
documented for OSP is applicable for RDO:

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by freezing versions. RPM upgrades
are not automatic once the nodes are deployed. If you want complete
control over the versions of RPMs on your systems, you can set up your
own RPM repository and use that instead of letting yum connect to the
Internet for downloads.

When you are building overcloud images, you can set the value of
DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF to point at yum repo files that will be used to
create the overcloud images. If you point at local repos, you can
control which RPMs are used for the deployment.
