 ## Periodic assessment
 
- Periodic assessment is an update setting on a machine that allows you to enable automatic periodic checking of updates by Update Manager (preview). We recommend that you enable this property on your machines as it allows Update Manager (preview) to fetch latest updates for your machines every 24 hours and enables you to view the latest compliance status of your machines. You can enable this setting using update settings flow as detailed [here](manage-update-settings.md#configure-settings-on-single-vm) or enable it at scale by using [Policy](periodic-assessment-at-scale.md).

-
-   - **Periodic assessment** - The **periodic Assessment** is set to run every 24 hours. You can either enable or disable this setting.
-     
-    - **Hot patch** - You can enable [hot patching](../automanage/automanage-hotpatch.md) for Windows Server Azure Edition Virtual Machines (VMs). Hot patching is a new way to install updates on supported *Windows Server Azure Edition* virtual machines that doesn't require a reboot after installation. You can use Update Manager (preview) to install other patches by scheduling patch installation or triggering immediate patch deployment. You can enable, disable or reset this setting.

+    - **Patch orchestration** option provides:
 
-      - **Customer Managed Schedules (Preview)**—enables schedule patching on your existing VMs. The new patch orchestration option enables the two VM properties - **Patch mode = Azure-orchestrated** and **BypassPlatformSafetyChecksOnUserSchedule = TRUE** on your behalf after receiving your consent.
-      - **Azure Managed - Safe Deployment**—for a group of virtual machines undergoing an update, the Azure platform will orchestrate updates. (not applicable for Arc-enabled server). The VM is set to [automatic VM guest patching](../virtual-machines/automatic-vm-guest-patching.md).(i.e), the patch mode is **AutomaticByPlatform**. There are different implications depending on whether customer schedule is attached to it or not. For more information, see the [user scenarios](prerequsite-for-schedule-patching.md#user-scenarios).
-          - Available *Critical* and *Security* patches are downloaded and applied automatically on the Azure VM using [automatic VM guest patching](../virtual-machines/automatic-vm-guest-patching.md). This process kicks off automatically every month when new patches are released. Patch assessment and installation are automatic, and the process includes rebooting the VM as required.
-      - **Windows Automatic Updates** (AutomaticByOS) - When the workload running on the VM doesn't have to meet availability targets, the operating system updates are automatically downloaded and installed. Machines are rebooted as needed.
-      - **Manual updates** - This mode disables Windows automatic updates on VMs. Patches are installed manually or using a different solution.
-      - **Image Default** - Only supported for Linux Virtual Machines, this mode uses the default patching configuration in the image used to create the VM.
