 While the architecture of Azure Local VMs is designed to be managed by the Azure control plane, these VMs can also be managed by on-premises local tools. These tools include System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM), Failover Cluster Manager, Hyper-V Manager, and Windows Admin Center. Many customers have used these tools for years to manage their on-premises VMs.
 
-If IT admins manage Azure Local VMs using the same tools and scripts as those for on-premises VMs, this could result in synchronization issues between the Azure Local VMs and the portal.
+If IT admins manage Azure Local VMs using the same tools and scripts as those for on-premises VMs, this will result in synchronization issues between the Azure Local VMs and the portal. Only the following operations when performed using local tools will update the state of the Azure Local VM in the portal: Changing the size of VM memory, vCPU count, change the power state status (Start/Stop VM) resulting from power cycle operation.
