To my knowledge, Ubuntu 18.04.1 is the LTS version and this the version
we are testing against, so that's why the system is installed with that
release. This is also visible in the image "Ubuntu kernel release cycle"
on https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle

Title:
  Unable to configure VLAN on an additional OSA interface

Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:

Bug description:
  After installing a base Ubuntu 18.04.1 server, an additional OSA device 
"e530" is attached and configured with chzdev. Then a VLAN configuration should 
be applied using the ip command.
  However this results in the error message "RTNETLINK answers: File exists". 

  >----snip----
  ip link add link ence530 name ence530.209 type vlan id 209
  RTNETLINK answers: File exists
  ----snip----<

  Executing the same steps on an Ubuntu 16.04.5 server, the ip command
  finishes without an error message but the VLAN interface is also not
  configured.

  Reproduction:

  - Install a 18.04.1 server
  - attach an additional OSA interface
  - configure a VLAN using the ip command
