Hyper V windows update install order


what correct procedure install windows updates on server 2012 r2 14 hyper v servers running on it?

update host first, reboot , update hyper v's , reboot them .. or?

thx


you have mixed terms in here, let me first restate think asking. have single windows server 2012 r2 system hyper-v role installed. on running 14 guest vms (not hyper-v servers, since hyper-v server not supported guest vm). should update host (what calling core?) first , update guest vms (hyper v's?)?

there no fixed answer this.  depends on business needs , how want run environment.  technical point of view, doesn't make whole lot of difference.  business standpoint, rebooting host hyper-v system take down vms, need schedule maintenance period when not cause business impact.  14 guest vms, can rebooted individually create least impact.  or, patch/reboot during single maintenance period.  makes sense environment.
