RKE2 Windows Troubleshooting

For any and all RKE2 Windows Clusters, v1.22.x or higher of RKE2 needs to be used. This is due to a Calico 3.19.x bug in v1.21.x of RKE2 that Tigera will not backport.
The minor version of Calico was changed midway through the RKE2 v1.22 lifecycle.
- rke2 v1.22.3+rke2r1 through v1.22.6+rke2r1 have Calico 3.20.x (3.20.1 for v1.22.3+rke2r1 only and then 3.20.2 until v1.22.7+rke2r1)
- rke2 v1.22.7+rke2r1 and up have Calico 3.21.4 (or higher)

To create a VM, you need an image. This can be found by using az vm image list. Some examples below:

`az vm image list -p MicrosoftWindowsServer -f windowsserver -s datacenter-core-2004 --all

`az vm image list -p MicrosoftWindowsServer -f windowsserver -s datacenter-core-20H2 --all
