+> 1. Using Microsoft Update, download and install the 1.1.2110.03111 update (same as any other EFLOW update, no need for manual steps as long as EFLOW updates are turned on).
+> 2. Once EFLOW update is finshed, open an elevated PowerShell session.
+> 3. Run the migration script:
+>  ```powershell
+>   Migrate-EflowVmFromHcsToVmms
+>   ```

+> Note: Fresh EFLOW 1.1.2110.0311 msi installations on Windows Server SKUs will result in EFLOW deployments using VMMS technology, so no migration is needed.

 With IoT Edge for Linux on Windows, IoT Edge runs in a Linux virtual machine hosted on a Windows device. This virtual machine is pre-installed with IoT Edge, and you cannot manually update or change the IoT Edge components. Instead, the virtual machine is managed with Microsoft Update to keep the components up to date automatically.
 
 To find the latest version of Azure IoT Edge for Linux on Windows, see [EFLOW releases](https://aka.ms/AzEFLOW-Releases).
