Answer 1

Hello Rajesh !

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Learn.

First try to check the status of the Log Analytics agent (also known as the OMS agent) on your Linux VM.

sudo /opt/microsoft/omsagent/bin/service_control status

If the agent is not running, try restarting it:

sudo /opt/microsoft/omsagent/bin/service_control restart

Don't forget that the agent is properly configured with the correct workspace ID and key, the configuration file located at:

/etc/opt/microsoft/omsagent/<workspace_id>/conf/omsagent.conf

If you've tried all the above steps and the issue persists, consider reaching out to Azure Support for further assistance.
