    Hi Tanul,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to answer your question.

    I understand you are trying to upgrade ASK cluster and the cluster shows in failed state after you triggered the upgrade. What is the current version of your cluster?
    Did you run the diagnostics? running diagnostics will give clues on the cluster state failure.

    Firstly, I would suggest fixing failed state. Please do the following:

    Upgrade aks to version that is already there. If the current version is say 1.18.10 , you nee to run below

    az aks upgrade  --resource-group myResourceGroup  --name myAKSCluster --kubernetes-version  1.18.10    
    

    which fixes the failed state of the cluster

    After this you just need to run the upgrade to the correct next version (1.22.6), I would suggest checking for the available version for upgrade using below

    az aks get-upgrades --resource-group myResourceGroup --name myAKSCluster --output table  
    

    Now the upgrade:

    az aks upgrade  --resource-group myResourceGroup  --name myAKSCluster --kubernetes-version 1.22.6  
    

    You could also look at the events using kubectl get events to show events in the default namespaces while running an upgrade. For example

    az aks get-upgrades --resource-group myResourceGroup --name myAKSCluster --output table

    Hope this helps!
