    Hi gabriel mascheroni,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Q&A!

    Can you please check the current status of the server?

    az mysql flexible-server show \  --name <server-name> \  --resource-group <resource-group>
    

    Can you also try checking the following points:

    1. Check the Resource Health: Go to the Azure portal and check the resource health of your server. This section can provide insights on any service events that might be affecting the server.
    2. Enable Error Logs: Enabling error logs can help identify the underlying causes of why the server is stuck. This might offer more clarity on what's happening with your server during the update process.
    3. Scaling Considerations: If your server is a burstable server, check your CPU credits. If the credits are depleted, performance issues will arise, which can cause such operations to hang. You might consider scaling to a General Purpose SKU for more stable performance.
    4. Check for Maintenance Activities: Sometimes, maintenance can lead to extended update times. Refer to Azure’s maintenance updates for any recent activities that might be affecting your server.

    Meanwhile can you also provide the server details requested over the private messaging?It will help us to narrow down the issue

    Thanks!
