Upgrade ArcGIS Notebook Server (Windows containers)

ArcGIS Notebook Server on Windows containers is only supported on Windows Server 2022. If you have a previous installation of ArcGIS Notebook Server on Windows Server 2019, you must upgrade the operating system prior to upgrading to ArcGIS Notebook Server on Windows containers. Alternatively, you can perform a fresh installation of ArcGIS Notebook Server on Windows Server 2022 and configure it as the Notebook Server for your ArcGIS Enterprise deployment.
