Answered Centerlock rotor with 2020 Specialized Levo and Hayes Dominion brakes?

I just got a new rear hub after a month of waiting, and it ended up being centrelock, not 6-bolt as I had requested. Due to shipping times these days I'd rather not send it back and wait again for the right one so I am wondering if I can just purchase a centerlock rotor that will work instead. I have Hayes Dominion brakes, and a 2020 Levo. Does anyone know if I can use the Shimano Steps rotor with the built in magnet? for example, or any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I also considered a centerlock to 6 bolt adapter but if I'm stuck with centerlock I thought might as well ditch some bolts plus when I looked for them they all seemed to be a month out as well, where rotors were easier to find in stock.

My LBS says you can use the Steps rotor on a Levo. I never did though and went with the adapter to mount the 6 bolt rotor. Then I used neodymium magnets, one on each side of the rotor with super glue to insure them not moving.
