Cluster OS rolling upgrades Upgrade cluster nodes without downtime to key workloads
Spotlight capabilities
Hyper-V Cluster
Streamlined upgrades: Upgrade the OS of the cluster nodes from Windows Server 2012 R2 to Windows Server Technical Preview without stopping the Hyper-V or the SOFS workloads.
Infrastructure can keep pace with innovation, without impacting running workloads.
Phased upgrade approach:
A cluster node is paused and drained of workloads by using available migration capabilities.
The node is evicted, and the operating system OS is replaced with clean install of Windows Server Technical Preview.
The new node is added back into active cluster. The cluster is now in mixed-mode. This process is repeated for other nodes.
The cluster functional level stays at Windows Server 2012 R2 until all nodes have been upgraded. Upon completion, the administrator executes Update-ClusterFunctionalLevel, using PowerShell.
