Hello, From what I understand, the W2K22 Azure VM Hotpatch images will follow this schedule: My question is about the "Planned/Unplanned Baselines" schedules and planning a high available service (File Server) reboots: If the July/Aug/October/Jan updates require a reboot and I set the VM in the Portal to: Reboot Setting: Never Reboot (because of the service File Server being used 24/7) When exactly is the update being installed (date/time)? Can we see or get alerted when a update is installed or when a reboot is required? If I set to "Never reboot" and I know when the update is installed then I can set a Task Schedule task to shutdown -r -t We also have SCCM which manages all other OS software updates but I don't see how Thanks, M

My question is about the "Planned/Unplanned Baselines" schedules and planning a high available service (File Server) reboots:

If the July/Aug/October/Jan updates require a reboot and I set the VM in the Portal to:
- Reboot Setting: Never Reboot (because of the service File Server being used 24/7)

When exactly is the update being installed (date/time)?
Can we see or get alerted when a update is installed or when a reboot is required?

If I set to "Never reboot" and I know when the update is installed then I can set a Task Schedule task to shutdown -r -t

We also have SCCM which manages all other OS software updates but I don't see how

Thanks, M
