I understand that you changed your SUSE Azure VM from pay as you go to Azure Hybrid Benefit and are unable to run patches. Please let me know if I am missing something.

This article by SUSE walks you through the steps needed after making this change. I am including the commands below:

registercloudguest --clean
zypper rm -y cloud-regionsrv-client
SUSEConnect --cleanup --url https://scc.suse.com
SUSEConnect -r <ActivationCode> -e <EmailAddress>

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions or still have issues.
