-          You might have received an email telling you that your Virtual machine is running on images that are scheduled for deprecation or already deprecated as seen in the diagram below. There are several reasons an image can be deprecated by the publisher which might be due to security issues or the image reaching end of life.

           An image can be deprecated on the version, plan or offer level:
           - Deprecation of an image version - the removal of an individual VM image version
-          - Deprecation of a plan or SKU - the removal of a plan or SKU and subsequently all images within the plan    
-          - Deprecation of an offer - the removal of an entire VM offer, including all plans within the offer and subsequently all images within each plan.

-          If you want your scale set to scale out after the deprecation date, you will need to identify the scale set running on the deprecated image and then migrate your workload to a supported image. If you want to remain on the image after deprecation, you can create your own custom image and migrate to it (Steps outlined below). If you already have auto updates configured for your VM or scale set, you will only be impacted when an Offer or plan version is deprecated (No impact on image version deprecation).
