Hi!
We recently enrolled Azure Arc and Azure Monitoring for VMs using the latest Azure Monitor Agent (1.12.1.0). All VMs are reporting correctly to Azure Arc, but we have an odd problem with our Windows Server 2012 VMs where the NameSpace and Name properties are missing from all InsightMetrics entries. We can see the value, but Namespace/Name is not being logged; Azure Monitor for VMs also fails due to this.
The VMs are reporting Heartbeat correctly, and also other tables such as VMComputer and VMProcess are populated correctly.
Any ideas?

I am checking with internal teams to see if there is any known issue with respect to Arc enabled windows servers 2012 using azure monitor. In the meanwhile, can you check if there is anything differently configured for these machines like network firewall or any specific network restrictions?

I have checked with internal SMEs from an azure monitor team, there aren't any known issues with respect to Arc enabled windows servers 2012 using azure monitor. This issue needs to be debugged live in the problem set up.
I would recommend you reach out to the Azure technical support team. If you don't have the ability to open a support ticket, you can send an email with your Subscription ID and link to this thread to AzCommunity@microsoft.com with subject line as "ATTN: Priyanka".
can then enable your subscription for one-time free support. -
