Enseva Azure Virtual Machine Instance Updates

Enseva Azure subscriptions have been modified to include updated versions of all virtual machine templates. This enables you to quickly create fully patched (as of November 2018) instances of your preferred Windows or Linux operating system. Focus more time on constructing and configuring your environment and less time on updating systems. Distributions and versions listed below.

• CentOS7 (Version 1804)
• Debian (Version 9.5)
• Ubuntu Server (Version 18.04.1)
• Windows Server 2012R2 (Version 6.3)
• Windows Server 2016 (Version 1607)

One of the most notable changes from previous templates is to Ubuntu Server. The method of configuring network interfaces has changed from previous versions. The new configuration now resides in /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml. Below is an example configuration for referencing purposes.
