Please update ubuntu-advantage-tools to version 17. These are the changes:
  * Added enable-fips-updates command. This command enables the fips-updates
    repository to install updates to FIPS modules. The updated modules from
    fips-updates repository are non-certified.
  * Add repository pinning for FIPS packages
  * Check that all prerequisite packages are installed when enabling FIPS
  * Support returning the status for a single service

All but the last bit are about FIPS, which is not enabled for Bionic. We would like to have it in bionic to allow us to SRU it to xenial.

The last change (status for a single service) is mostly a cosmetic general feature:
$ ua status fips
esm: disabled (not available)
fips: disabled (not available)
livepatch: disabled

vs

$ ua status fips
fips: disabled (not available)
