Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS linux-image-4.15.0-1188-azure 4.15.0-1188.203 Available with Ubuntu Pro linux-image-azure-lts-18.04 4.15.0.1188.156 Available with Ubuntu Pro
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS linux-image-4.15.0-1188-azure 4.15.0-1188.203~16.04.1 Available with Ubuntu Pro linux-image-azure 4.15.0.1188.203~16.04.1 Available with Ubuntu Pro
After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes.
ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
