For the last 20 minutes one of my Azure VMs has switched ot the state "starting". It has brought down 15 websites as it is a SQL Server machine.
Does anyone know what is going on, and why this would happen? Is is really frustrating as I just have to wait, as when it is in this state, there is nothing you can do.
I know MS periodically apply updates to the VMs, but surely the update would not take this long to apply?
