Note:
Self-service maintenance might not be available for all of your VMs. To determine if proactive redeploy is available for your VM, look for the Start now in the maintenance status. Self-service maintenance is currently not available for Cloud Services (Web/Worker Role) and Service Fabric
Self-service maintenance is not recommended for deployments using availability sets since these are highly available setups, where only one update domain is impacted at any given time.
