This article applies to Arc-enabled machines (virtual or physical), but the new IMPORTANT note refers to “moved virtual machines”. Consider changing to “moved machines/servers” to avoid implying this only applies to VMs.

The note calls out upgrading the WindowsAgent.SqlServer extension on the “virtual machine”. This is Windows-specific and VM-specific; Arc-enabled SQL Server can also be on Linux/physical machines (for Linux it’s LinuxAgent.SqlServer). Consider referring generically to “the Azure extension for SQL Server” (and, if you include the extension name, mention both Windows and Linux) and adding a link to the existing extension upgrade instructions so the guidance is actionable.

> Upgrading the Azure extension for SQL Server (for example, `WindowsAgent.SqlServer` or `LinuxAgent.SqlServer`) will also trigger a refresh of the SQL instance and database inventory. For upgrade steps, see [Upgrade Azure extension for SQL Server](upgrade-azure-extension-sql-server.md).
