What breaks

On 31 Mar 2027, workloads running the Standard_M192ids_v2 virtual machine size are deleted and the associated application data is lost. Standard_M192ids_v2 is an isolated VM size, and isolated sizes are tied to the hardware generation they were designed for. Microsoft states that this hardware has been replaced by a new generation and that it can no longer offer the size. Until 31 Mar 2027, Standard_M192ids_v2 can be used without disruption.
