Thank you, Marianne. I've followed the steps and created a Windows 8.1.2 x64 package and then tried a manual install on one of the hosts that I added to the master via Deployment Management > Deployment Policies > Manual Deployment. The Activity log seems to indicate that the upgrade was successful but the host is still showing the 7.5.06 version. Here is the Activity output. Any ideas?
