Successfully configured FIPS. PLEASE REBOOT to complete FIPS enablement.

We can see the extra "Updating zipl to enable fips" line.

And after issuing the reboot we are running a fips kernel on s390:
ubuntu@xenial-andreas:~$ ubuntu-advantage status
livepatch: disabled

esm: disabled (not available)

fips: enabled
ubuntu@xenial-andreas:~$ uname -a
