Azure Automation Account: Total Job Metric Not Receiving Data for Hybrid Worker Group Jobs

Question

The Azure Automation Account metric ‘Total Jobs’ is not receiving data for jobs run on a hybrid worker group node. Several jobs running on Azure show data in the ‘Total Jobs’ metric, but this specific scenario does not reflect any data. Clarification is needed on whether there is something missed in the configuration or if the Total Jobs metric won't be populated for the jobs running on a hybrid worker group.

Hi @Devipriya Anbazhagan
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

The 'Total Jobs' metric in Azure Automation Account is used to track the total number of jobs that have been run in the automation account. This metric should include jobs that are run on both Azure and hybrid worker group nodes.

If you are not seeing data for the 'Total Jobs' metric for jobs run on a hybrid worker group node, there might be an issue with the configuration of the hybrid worker group. Here are some steps you can follow to troubleshoot the issue:

Check the hybrid worker group configuration: Ensure that the hybrid worker group is configured correctly and is registered with the Azure Automation Account. You can check the hybrid worker group configuration in the Azure portal or using PowerShell cmdlets.

Check the hybrid worker group status: Ensure that the hybrid worker group is running and is connected to the Azure Automation Account. You can check the hybrid worker group status in the Azure portal or using PowerShell cmdlets.

Check the job logs: Check the job logs for the jobs that are run on the hybrid worker group node. The job logs should provide information on whether the job was run successfully or if there were any errors or issues.

1. Check the Azure Automation Account settings: Ensure that the Azure Automation Account settings are configured correctly to collect and display the 'Total Jobs' metric. You can check the Azure Automation Account settings in the Azure portal or using PowerShell cmdlets.
