Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently listing 'Windows Security Events' and 'Windows Events' as primary log sources, referencing Windows-specific tools like the Azure Monitoring Agent (AMA) for Windows VM log collection, and omitting explicit Linux log collection examples or Linux agent instructions. Syslog and CEF are mentioned, but only generically and without parity in example detail or tooling. There are no Linux-specific collection patterns, nor are Linux VMs or their security events discussed with the same specificity as Windows.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples and instructions for collecting security and performance events from Linux VMs, such as using AMA or legacy agents for Linux.
  • Provide parity in log source lists by mentioning Linux equivalents (e.g., Linux audit logs, /var/log/syslog, /var/log/auth.log) alongside Windows events.
  • Add details on configuring diagnostic settings and workspace routing for Linux VMs and containers.
  • Reference Linux-specific documentation and tools (e.g., OMS Agent for Linux, AMA for Linux, syslog configuration) where Windows tools are mentioned.
  • Ensure that diagrams and solution summaries show both Windows and Linux VM log flows, and clarify any differences in agent deployment or data collection.
