Schedules

Azure Update Manager uses 'maintenance configuration schedules' to specify when updates will be applied. Using standardized roles, we provide a default set of schedules. Each schedule utilizes a dynamic scope that looks for a tag on the VM. Based on the tag, the VM is included in the schedule.
