Terms in this definition
- Log Analytics agent
Older MMA/OMS monitoring agent, retired in August 2024. The Azure Monitor Agent, configured with data collection rules, replaces it.
- Connection Monitor
Continuously probes network paths from sources to destinations in Network Watcher. Each monitor accepts source VMs only from its own region, so multiple source regions mean multiple monitors.
