Azure Update Manager | Azure Local "update readiness" stuck in "In Progress"

Question

I deployed the Stack today, but it's been a few hours already.

Azure Update Manager column "Status" says "Up to date" but "Update readiness" is still In Progress

Can't seem to stop it in any way.

I already ran suspend-clusternode, rebooted, resume-clusternode on the 1st node. it didn't help.

What to do to fix this? Where can i check the logs?

24h2, 2506, a 2 node cluster.

Hi GabeCz,

If the "Update readiness" column for your cluster is stuck in "In Progress" after several hours, but "Status" says "Up to date," this typically points to a stalled or incomplete readiness check. Please check below steps:

Review Readiness Details:

• In the Azure Portal, go to your Azure Update Manager instance.
• Under the History or the Check readiness sections, look for failed or pending steps. Use the "View details" or "Affected systems" links to see what is causing the hang. Troubleshoot readiness checks

Run Health & Precheck Commands: Review output for "InProgress" or any explicit failures. Address remediation actions listed in the results.

# Run a solution health precheck
Invoke-SolutionUpdatePrecheck -SystemHealth
# Check for failed health checks
Get-SolutionUpdateEnvironment | Format-List HealthState,HealthCheckResult,HealthCheckDate
# For update readiness checks and failed updates
Get-SolutionUpdate | Format-Table Version, State, HealthCheckResult
