Windows 2022 HotPatch Option

Copper Contributor

Hi, Regarding Windows 2022 HotPatch option, Can this feature be supported through Update management solution for Azure VM's in a scheduled way?

Hi @Shalini28 

So far there is nothing that affirms that Automation Account Update management can do that job, but you can use Automatic VM guest patching for Azure VMs, it's an alternative.

Check the patching orchestration modes within: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/automatic-vm-guest-patching#patch-orchestrat...

You still will need reboot for some of the other patches:

Hope it helped.
