I'm managing around 150 endpoints through Intune and Atera RMM, and I've noticed some devices are still on 22H2 and 23H2. I'm eager to upgrade them to 24H2 but finding the process really cumbersome. It often feels like I have to intervene manually, which isn't practical for the scale I'm working with. I'm looking for any tips or best practices that might help streamline the process or even automate it more effectively. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I use Ninja RMM for upgrades. My strategy involves creating reports and utilizing PowerShell scripts to handle batches of computers. It makes the process a lot more manageable.
If the upgrades aren't completing, there might be underlying issues causing that. I recommend checking logs like Get-WindowsUpdateLog to understand what's going wrong. Once you pinpoint the problem, you can proceed with the usual upgrade methods that have worked for your other endpoints.
When you execute those scripts, do users know what's happening? I'm curious if the upgrades run quietly and only prompt for a restart afterward. I'm worried about situations where users interrupt the process, like shutting down their PCs mid-upgrade.
