Administrator review#
Use these review steps for changes that affect your environment. They are a review checklist, not a claim that every release requires action.
- Required actions and deadlines: check the official upcoming-change and retirement notices. Record affected workloads, an owner, and a test date.
- Access and defaults: check whether a release changes permissions, identity, compliance controls, or features enabled by default.
- GA and previews: confirm regional and compute support before adoption. Test the workload and rollback plan outside production.
