It can be found here: https://github.com/dustint...

CPUID question to VM-Series

For Azure VM-Series, can CPUID be the same per instance?Customers say that 4-7 CPUIDs are all the same in the VM-Series.The serial number is different for each instance, but can the CPUID be the same?I know that CPUID is a unique value of VM-Series. I think that the eigenvalue should be different for each instance. What do you think?
