Azure Storage Mover is a hybrid service, which continuously introduces new features and improvements. Azure Storage Mover agent versions can only be supported for a limited time. Agents automatically update themselves to the latest version. There's no need to manage any part of the self-update process. However, agents need to be running and connected to the internet to check for updates. To facilitate updates to agents that haven't been running for a while:
