Symptoms
Assume that you use Always On availability groups (AG) in Microsoft SQL Server 2017. When you remove an availability group listener or you change the port number of an availability group listener that was created by using Failover Cluster Manager, SQL Server may fall into a non-yielding scheduler scenario and stop responding.
Resolution
This fix is included in Cumulative Update 5 for SQL Server 2017.
