title: Azure Virtual Machines stuck in Starting mode
body: <p>This morning I found 5 of my Azure Virtual machines to be stuck in Starting mode. 
  All other VMs are working ok.</p>
  
  <p>I managed to stop the VMs using the Azure command shell and then start them again but they are still stuck in starting mode with no end in sight.</p>
  
  <p>It has now been over 5 1/2 hours and still stuck in starting mode.</p>
  
  <p>I have contacted Microsoft support but they are taking hours to respond :(((</p>
  
  <p>The Azure Status page doesn't show anything is wrong in my region.</p>
  
  <p>Has anybody else experiencing this problem?</p>
