Pull request overview
This PR adds a preview --zones/-z argument to az aks nodepool update to enable migrating a regional AKS node pool to automatic zone placement (--zones auto) while preserving existing zones when the argument is omitted. To satisfy RP constraints, it scopes use of the 2026-01-02-preview API version to only the PUT update call when --zones is explicitly provided, keeping the initial GET and non-zones updates on the stable client.
Changes:
- Add
--zones/-z [Preview]toaz aks nodepool update(params + help) to support--zones autoand explicit zone lists. - Update the agentpool update decorator to apply
availability_zonesonly when--zonesis provided and to use the preview API version only for that PUT. - Add unit tests covering zone update behavior and verifying preview-client selection (and preserving custom resource clients).

az aks nodepool update --zones autoDescription
Adds the preview
--zones/-zargument toaz aks nodepool updateso a regional node pool can migrate to automatic zone placement. Omitted zones preserve the existing value.The RP rejects this property change on API versions before
2026-01-02-preview, so only a PUT with an explicitly supplied--zonesuses that preview API. The initial GET and node pool updates without--zonescontinue to use the normal stable client. Custom resource types such as aks-preview keep their own vendored preview client.Companion aks-preview extension PR: Azure/azure-cli-extensions#10248
