So version pining dont work with choco for this? Should we look at alternative?

it's the Gateway installer itself that seems to automatically pull the latest version at install time.

Removed the chocolately install altogether. Via a deep dive search and thanks to a reddit post, I've found a download page for previous versions that work: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/data-integration/gateway/service-gateway-monthly-updates

Description
Context
Required preparation to migrate off the incorrectly deployed Production instance.
My proposal is we should set up the 2 currently unused standalone instances as NEW Gateway cluster in the PowerBI service and migrate the reports to use this and then remove the existing cluster and underlying un-managed instance.
We cannot replicate accurately the state of Production currently so I'm proposing this as a way to parallel run with the existing Prod gateway and safely test the migration of reports onto the new logical gateway cluster. This should hopefully bring parity between NonProd and Prod, fix the patching schedule (1 instance in the cluster is patched on a Weds, 1 on a Sunday) and moving forward, Gateway software updates can be done via the PowerBI service console.
Next Steps
Once merged and deployed into Dev/NonProd we'll need Ross to configure the gateway in the PowerBI Service. it would then be good if we could get Grace to create 1 or more reports (I appreciate the data is nonsense) so that we can firstly test the gateway functionality, but also use them for PTL testing in the future.
