Explanation
When maintenance windows are split and not all Defenders can be upgraded at once, the recommended approach is to upgrade individual Defenders selectively using the Actions > Upgrade button on each Defender's row in Manage > Defenders > Manage. This gives granular control, allowing exactly 30 Defenders to be upgraded during Monday's window and the remaining 20 during Sunday's window. Option A (using a Scheduler) may not support splitting upgrades across separate windows in this manner. Option C (finding a single window for all) is not feasible given the constraint stated in the question. Option D (opening a support case) is unnecessary - this is a self-service operation built into the Console UI.
