Upgrade Microsoft Windows Operating System on Azure VM Step by Step

[@abhinayk4223]

Why are we testing on hyper-v rather we can directly perform it on server by attaching the disk which contains VHD file as data disk to vm and upgrade from there..??

[@AL-Techs]

dear, may you describe the process in details? if you attach the disk to another VM, how you are going to upgrade the OS on the attached disk? Instead of using Hyper V on premises you can use it on a nested VM on Azure. As per Microsoft workaround: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/virtual-machines/in-place-system-upgrade#workaround

Thanks for the video. Exactly what I needed. Upgraded 2 Azure VMs, using a hyperv host within azure.

[@jonathansavic8890]

Thanks, one question to understand if there could be a different way, can you upgrade the OS in place directly on the Azure VM by uploading the ISO of the new OS?

[@AL-Techs]

No Jonathan, In Place upgrade ia not supported yet on Azure. one way is to migrate your files and apps to Higher OS version using Microsoft tools and commands. another way is the one uploaded in this video and which I recommend and I guess its much easier than migrating. Regards.

How we can download non-eval version of iso? Can you provide more info

[@AL-Techs]

You need to have a VLSC account, or now you can have it from Azure subscription like CSP. other than that, you need to change your evaluation standard to standrd. i will try to make a video about that very soon...

Where we can find whitelisted IP list for OS management for Azure vm ?

Thank you for this wonderful video. It helped me upgrade my Azure VM running server 2008 r2 to 2019. I first upgraded to 2012 then upgraded the 2012 to 2019. I wish i could like and subscribe to this video and channel a million times. 😄

What abt the existing application will there be any impact

[@AL-Techs]

bro, you need to check first if your application works normally and compatible with the upgraded version. and this something you need to get from the app support team.

Hi, Thank you for the video it helps a lot, for some reason when I am starting the 'Start In-place upgrade' will immediately start the windows update options and when I choose to upgrade the 'Window server 2019 standard' option from the menu and it throws an error saying this upgrade option isn't available if you start windows installation mode. am not sure how to start Hyper V VM in non installation mode

[@AL-Techs]

Hi bro. I will try to help you as much as I can, Azure VM OS upgrade is only available now for windows 10 and through Windows uodate only. and they dnt recommend in-place upgrade. any help wanted, please dont hesitate...
