"So your system is obviously not an 18.04 default installation from scratch" 
This is correct. We are not using a standard installation but build an 
appliance with a minimal footprint. Our build process builds the appliance 
using debootstrap and we are using a local apt repository with the deb packages 
from UBUNTU 18.04 as input for debootstrap. So we are basically controlling 
what packages are installed in our appliances and right now netplan is not 
included.

  Some more information about the issue:

  Network device has been configured manually after the image is up from 
Support Element(SE):
      - znetconf -a <dev_id>
      - cat /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/<dev_id>/if_name
      - ifconfig <interface_name> <ip_address> netmask 255.255.255.0
      - route add default gw <gateway_address> <interface_name>
      - SSH service has been configured

          * The above output shows that devices are not managed by nmcli
          
  After some investigation we found couple of suggestions like
  1. Ubuntu(version <17.04): Creating an empty 
file(/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/10-globally-managed-devices.conf) and 
restarting NM,
     solved the issue.
     
  2. Ubuntu(version 17.10): Copying the said 
file(10-globally-managed-devices.conf) from /usr/lib to /etc/ and modifying the 
     "unmanaged-devices" to none, resolved the issue.

  For the latest version(18.04), none of the above solutions worked.
