How do I suppress the upgrade notification?

On Mac mini (macOS Sierra 10.12.6), the notification "Upgrade to macOS High Sierra" has come up.


I've read very bad things about upgrading to macOS High Sierra, and want to tell the notification to go away for (say) a week. Perhaps then the bugs will be straightened out.

How do I make that notification go away for a week?

Is there a Snooze button? Click and hold to select a time to snooze.

Otherwise, clicking on the close button should make it go away permanently.

I've never seen the notification, so I'm not sure what options are available. I assume it is like any other.

What "bugs" have you been reading about that cause you concern?

I've installed it on a Mac Mini and MacBook Pro and haven't noticed any problems that affect me.
