noteNote
When a new release of the Windows Azure Guest OS is published, it can take several days for it to fully propagate across Windows Azure. If your service is configured for auto-upgrade, it will be upgraded sometime after the release date, and you’ll see the new guest OS version listed for your service. If you are upgrading your service manually, the new guest OS will be available for you to upgrade your service once the full roll-out of the guest OS to Windows Azure is complete.
