Summary
The documentation describes migration from the Log Analytics agent (MMA) to Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) for both Windows and Linux, but all procedural steps, examples, and scripts are presented in a generic or Windows-centric manner. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, examples, or references to Linux tools or commands. The installation and management links default to the Azure portal, which is typically more familiar to Windows users, and there is no mention of Linux package managers or command-line installation methods.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux installation instructions, including command-line examples using package managers (e.g., apt, yum, zypper) for AMA and Dependency agent.
- Provide Linux-specific prerequisites and troubleshooting steps.
- Include examples of running queries or scripts on Linux hosts, possibly using Bash or shell scripting.
- Reference Linux documentation tabs or sections alongside Azure portal instructions.
- Clarify any differences in migration steps or agent behavior between Windows and Linux environments.
