Update windows-in-place-upgrade.md #308
Conversation
For workloads hosting critical infrastructure roles or applications such as SQL Server, Domain Controller (DC), Active Directory (AD), or similar, we do not recommend performing an in-place OS upgrade. Deploying a new VM with latest desired version and copying the data will always be a best option. This approach will not only address certain roadblocks but will also ensure a safer, more controlled, and supportable upgrade path across your critical environment.
