Apr 1, 2026April 2026 (MicrosoftDocs/azure-stack-docs): Delivered two major documentation-focused features that enhance hardware validation and Bare Metal machine operations. Work focused on reducing operational risk and support overhead by tightening validation guidance, clarifying workflows, and outlining edge-case handling. Key outcomes include addressing false positives due to hardware identity changes, clearer cluster inspection failure instructions, TLS certificate cleanup guidance, and firmware update edge cases in hardware validation (HWV). Additionally, storage policy clarifications for RAID controller and backplane replacements in Bare Metal Machines were documented. All changes are supported by a series of committed changes and quality wording improvements to ensure accuracy and readability.
