Azure update Manager upgrade support for linux BYOS Images

“We are using SLES 15 SP6 BYOS images in Azure and attempting to orchestrate patching via Azure Update Manager (AUM). While security and critical updates work via AUM and zypper, our goal is to automate Service Pack (SP) upgrades via AUM or similar mechanisms. Can SUSE share any customer-proven practices, supported scripts, or integration guidance for achieving SP upgrades in a cloud-native or semi-automated way—ideally within Azure?”
