Log Analytics virtual machine extension for Linux

Overview

Azure Monitor Logs provides monitoring, alerting, and alert remediation capabilities across cloud and on-premises assets. The Log Analytics virtual machine extension for Linux is published and supported by Microsoft. The extension installs the Log Analytics agent on Azure virtual machines, and enrolls virtual machines into an existing Log Analytics workspace. This document details the supported platforms, configurations, and deployment options for the Log Analytics virtual machine extension for Linux.

Note

Azure Arc-enabled servers enables you to deploy, remove, and update the Log Analytics agent VM extension to non-Azure Windows and Linux machines, simplifying the management of your hybrid machine through their lifecycle. For more information, see VM extension management with Azure Arc-enabled servers.

Prerequisites

Operating system

For details about the supported Linux distributions, refer to the Overview of Azure Monitor agents article.

Microsoft Defender for Cloud

Microsoft Defender for Cloud automatically provisions the Log Analytics agent and connects it to a default Log Analytics workspace created by Defender for Cloud in your Azure subscription. If you are using Microsoft Defender for Cloud, do not run through the steps in this document. Doing so overwrites the configured workspace and breaks the connection with Microsoft Defender for Cloud.

Internet connectivity

The Log Analytics agent extension for Linux requires that the target virtual machine is connected to the internet.

Extension schema

The following JSON shows the schema for the Log Analytics agent extension. The extension requires the workspace ID and workspace key from the target Log Analytics workspace; these values can be found in your Log Analytics workspace in the Azure portal. Because the workspace key should be treated as sensitive data, it should be stored in a protected setting configuration. Azure VM extension protected setting data is encrypted, and only decrypted on the target virtual machine. Note that workspaceId and workspaceKey are case-sensitive.

Note

Because the Container Monitoring solution is being retired, the following documentation uses the optional setting "skipDockerProviderInstall": true.

{
  "type": "Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/extensions",
  "name": "OMSExtension",
  "apiVersion": "2018-06-01",
  "location": "<location>",
  "dependsOn": [
    "[concat('Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/', <vm-name>)]"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "publisher": "Microsoft.EnterpriseCloud.Monitoring",
    "type": "OmsAgentForLinux",
    "typeHandlerVersion": "1.16",
    "autoUpgradeMinorVersion": true,
    "settings": {
      "workspaceId": "myWorkspaceId",
      "skipDockerProviderInstall": true
    },
    "protectedSettings": {
      "workspaceKey": "myWorkSpaceKey"
    }
  }
}

Note

The schema above assumes that it will be placed at the root level of the template. If you put it inside the virtual machine resource in the template, the type and name properties should be changed, as described further down.

Property values

Name Value / Example
apiVersion 2018-06-01
publisher Microsoft.EnterpriseCloud.Monitoring
type OmsAgentForLinux
typeHandlerVersion 1.16
workspaceId (e.g) 6f680a37-00c6-41c7-a93f-1437e3462574
workspaceKey (e.g) z4bU3p1/GrnWpQkky4gdabWXAhbWSTz70hm4m2Xt92XI+rSRgE8qVvRhsGo9TXffbrTahyrwv35W0pOqQAU7uQ==

Template deployment

Note

Certain components of the Log Analytics VM extension are also shipped in the Diagnostics VM extension. Due to this architecture, conflicts can arise if both extensions are instantiated in the same ARM template. To avoid these install-time conflicts, use the dependsOn directive to ensure the extensions are installed sequentially. The extensions can be installed in either order.

Azure VM extensions can be deployed with Azure Resource Manager templates. Templates are ideal when deploying one or more virtual machines that require post deployment configuration such as onboarding to Azure Monitor Logs. A sample Resource Manager template that includes the Log Analytics agent VM extension can be found on the Azure Quickstart Gallery.

The JSON configuration for a virtual machine extension can be nested inside the virtual machine resource, or placed at the root or top level of a Resource Manager JSON template. The placement of the JSON configuration affects the value of the resource name and type. For more information, see Set name and type for child resources.

The following example assumes the VM extension is nested inside the virtual machine resource. When nesting the extension resource, the JSON is placed in the "resources": [] object of the virtual machine.

{
  "type": "extensions",
  "name": "OMSExtension",
  "apiVersion": "2018-06-01",
  "location": "<location>",
  "dependsOn": [
    "[concat('Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/', <vm-name>)]"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "publisher": "Microsoft.EnterpriseCloud.Monitoring",
    "type": "OmsAgentForLinux",
    "typeHandlerVersion": "1.16",
    "settings": {
      "workspaceId": "myWorkspaceId",
      "skipDockerProviderInstall": true
    },
    "protectedSettings": {
      "workspaceKey": "myWorkSpaceKey"
    }
  }
}

When placing the extension JSON at the root of the template, the resource name includes a reference to the parent virtual machine, and the type reflects the nested configuration.

{
  "type": "Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/extensions",
  "name": "<parentVmResource>/OMSExtension",
  "apiVersion": "2018-06-01",
  "location": "<location>",
  "dependsOn": [
    "[concat('Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/', <vm-name>)]"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "publisher": "Microsoft.EnterpriseCloud.Monitoring",
    "type": "OmsAgentForLinux",
    "typeHandlerVersion": "1.16",
    "settings": {
      "workspaceId": "myWorkspaceId",
      "skipDockerProviderInstall": true
    },
    "protectedSettings": {
      "workspaceKey": "myWorkSpaceKey"
    }
  }
}

Azure CLI deployment

The Azure CLI can be used to deploy the Log Analytics agent VM extension to an existing virtual machine. Replace the myWorkspaceKey value below with your workspace key and the myWorkspaceId value with your workspace ID. These values can be found in your Log Analytics workspace in the Azure portal under Advanced Settings. Replace the latestVersion value with a version from Log Analytics Linux VM extension version.

az vm extension set \
  --resource-group myResourceGroup \
  --vm-name myVM \
  --name OmsAgentForLinux \
  --publisher Microsoft.EnterpriseCloud.Monitoring \
  --protected-settings '{"workspaceKey":"myWorkspaceKey"}' \
  --settings '{"workspaceId":"myWorkspaceId","skipDockerProviderInstall": true}' \
  --version latestVersion

Azure PowerShell deployment

The Azure Powershell cmdlets can be used to deploy the Log Analytics agent VM extension to an existing virtual machine. Replace the myWorkspaceKey value below with your workspace key and the myWorkspaceId value with your workspace ID. These values can be found in your Log Analytics workspace in the Azure portal under Advanced Settings. Replace the latestVersion value with a version from Log Analytics Linux VM extension version.

Set-AzVMExtension \

Troubleshoot and support

Troubleshoot

Data about the state of extension deployments can be retrieved from the Azure portal, and by using the Azure CLI or Azure Powershell. To see the deployment state of extensions for a given VM, run the following command if you are using the Azure CLI.

az vm extension list --resource-group myResourceGroup --vm-name myVM -o table

Extension execution output is logged to the following file:

/var/log/azure/Microsoft.EnterpriseCloud.Monitoring.OmsAgentForLinux/extension.log

To retrieve the OMS extension version installed on a VM, run the following command if you are using Azure CLI.

az vm extension show --resource-group myResourceGroup --vm-name myVM --instance-view

To retrieve the OMS extension version installed on a VM, run the following command if you are using Azure PowerShell.

Get-AzVMExtension -ResourceGroupName my_resource_group  -VMName my_vm_name -Name OmsAgentForLinux -Status
