Hi All,

Any recommendation or refernece document on PTA Agent and AADConnect to not to monitor through Host Based Logging? Are there any issues identified or impact?

• For PTA Agent and AADConnect Servers - “Do Microsoft specifically state that Host Based Logging should be avoided?”

    Hi @Mahesh Aralelemath · Thank you for your patience.

    In regards to Microsoft/OS tools, we only have Perfmon counters that you could run to monitor #PTA authentications, #PTA failed authentications and #PTA successful authentications and Error counters (# PTA authentication errors). Other than this, all our errors are recorded on the Azure AD Portal.

    You could always monitor the service status from a host based logging.
