keyvault extension is not pulling the certificate. do you know where do i check the logs?
@Anand Rathi
You should be able to find the logs at the below path:
Navigate to ThisPC -> Windows (C:) -> Windows Azure -> Logs -> Plugins ->Microsoft.Azure.KeyVault.KeyVaultForWindows -> <version> -> akvvm_service_<date>.log
If your certificate still isn't being refreshed, I'd make sure that you're using one of the supported certificate content types (PKCS #12 or PEM) along with one of the supported OS versions. If you're still having issues after you confirm the pre-requisites are met, please let me know.
Thank you for your time!

@Anand Rathi
Thank you for your time over the call today. I was able to look into your issue and will post my findings below.
Issue: When you installed the extension on a single VM, you are able to find the logs within the documented folder path. However, when installing the extension on a VMSS you weren't able to find any log files.
Findings:
Before I installed the extension I only had one instance of a VMSS running:
Installed extension - afterwards I restarted the VM, and wasn't able to find the logs:
I provisioned another instance of my VMSS and found the log files:
I then noticed that my original VM wasn't upgraded to the latest model, while my newly provisioned VM was. Therefore, I upgraded my VM and was able to find the log files.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
Thank you again for your time and patience throughout this issue.
